21st Century Family Literacy Sponsors Diabetes Program


Wanda Jenkins welcomes Parents
and community members


The Warren County 21st Century Family Literacy and Activity Center is off to a great start for the new school year.  The center has a new home this year and is now located in room 219 at Warren County High School.  The room is being prepared to allow parents and community partners an opportunity to come during the day for extended learning activities and informative discussion sessions on various topics.

Turnout was better than expected for the Family Literacy Center's first program of the new school year.  Ms. Caroline Richardson from the University of Georgia Cooperative Extension met with 19 parents and community partners for an informative discussion on the challenges of diabetes.  The program was sponsored by Side Street Pizzeria, Ryan's in Thomson, and the Garden Gazebo.  A light lunch followed the program.

The Family Literacy and Activity Center plans even more informative programs for parents and community members.  Program coordinator, Wanda Jenkins, encourages all members of the community who might be interested to become involved.  For more information on future programs or for information on how you can become involved, contact the center at (706) 465-3742, Ext. 22.
