Gillette Agencies Collaborate for Family Resource Night, Distributing Diapers and Support
Local agencies in Gillette, Wyoming, recently collaborated for a family resource night held at Prairie Wind Elementary School. This event, organized by Head Start Preschool, brought together various resources, foundations, and nonprofits to provide support to families. During the downtown Gillette Halloween event, The Gabriel Project of Wyoming distributed diapers to 99 families, assisting 136 children. This initiative aims to alleviate financial burdens on families by providing essential supplies like diapers, wipes, and pull-ups, allowing them to allocate more income towards food and household expenses. Other participating organizations included the Gillette Abuse Refuge Foundation (GARF), the Women’s Resource Center, Safe Kids of Campbell County, Climb Wyoming, Second Chance Ministries, Children’s Developmental Services and Early Head Start, Parents as Teachers, and Personal Frontiers, all offering diverse services ranging from domestic violence support to job training and early childhood development.
