What is a Family Resource Center?

Family Resource Centers have been created as a part of the Kentucky Education Reform Act. The intent of the Center is to enhance student's abilities to succeed in school by assisting children and families to meet needs that impact on the education process. This will be done by providing services at the center in the schools and by linking families to agencies and communities.

Who Can Use The Family Resource Center?

All services are accessible through the KAPS Family Resource and Youth Services Center and are available to all children and families in the Hickman County School District.
