The Heart of Isaac Community Center hosted a successful community resource day, bringing essential support and resources to our local families and community members. Community members had access to health screenings, and a range of helpful services, all thanks to the collaboration of dedicated community partners and organizations. Special recognition goes to the amazing HOI team, parent educators, and parent volunteers for their hard work in making these events possible for our community.
