The Family and Community Resource Center is designed to strengthen family engagement by bringing essential services together in one accessible location.

The Center will:

• Provide centralized enrollment and registration support

• Offer access to health-related services

• Support workforce development and family resources

• Improve coordination between schools, families, and community partners

The District has secured $522,205 in grant funding from the Pennsylvania Department of Education’s Multi-Purpose Community Facilities Competitive Grant Program to support construction and program development.

Superintendent and Chief Executive Officer Dr. Carol D. Birks emphasized how the project supports District priorities:

“The Family and Community Resource Center reflects our commitment to empowering families by aligning education, health, and workforce development resources that strengthen the entire Allentown community. This project directly advances our Strategic Plan, Lighting the Way: A Blueprint for Innovation and Excellence 2030.”
