from our director - Family Development Center
The Family Development center works to keep children safe and strengthen families. Our programs serves families with children prenatally through the age of five. NON-PROFIT Organization U.S. Postage PAID Roseburg, OR Douglas County Relief Nursery & Healthy Families 300 Jerry’s Drive Roseburg, Oregon 97470 541-673-4354 RETURN SERVICE REQUESTED EARLY CHILDHOOD THERAPEUTIC CLASSROOM HOME VISITATION PARENT EDUCATION RESPITE CARE FALL 2013 FROM OUR DIRECTOR As the holiday season draws nearer, I am continually reminded of the kindness, caring, support and generosity Family Development Center has received from so many of you during the past year. Our outcomes would not be possible without your gifts of time, talents and resources. I am grateful for the many ways you helped to nurture and strengthen the children, families, and staff members at FDC. So many people reach out to our families. Some donate used clothing or household supplies, others sign up to shop at the holidays and some give the gift of their time. Each year people of all ages go through the screening process to become a classroom volunteer. Each volunteer, no matter how much time they give, impacts the life, the potential and the well-being of our children. We thank you all from the bottom of our hearts and hope you know the power of your gift.

A strong foundation provides momentum that is critical to keeping children safe and strengthening families. This has been an exciting year of growth and inspiration at the Family Development Center. This past year 389 children, 400 adults and 276 families have benefited from your contributions through our program. Our program is all about positive change, and change of any sort requires strength of character and courage. Strength is the cornerstone of character, and the prevailing quality that sees us through the toughest of times. Courage brings with it the ability to try again, and again. I am continually amazed by the strength and courage I see within our families during these challenging times. Parents are working diligently to overcome stress and to develop a strong, positive bond with their children. Parents at FDC are strengthening their capacity to nurture, soothe, play, sing and read to their children. This, in turn, is helping them to be more attentive and to be consistent in their care giving. Caring, nurturing relationships provide a basis for healthy physical, emotional, intellectual and social development, in young children and adults. Through your generosity we watch families heal and grow. Through small baby steps or by leaps and bounds great changes are taking place. Thank you for helping to make many small miracles possible. You make the difference! We are able to serve the families who need assistance through the generous and consistent philanthropic support of individuals and businesses in our communities. Your generosity truly does change lives. Thank you very much for caring so deeply about the well being of the children in our sphere of possible and positive change.
