It is normal for families to fight back with different issues. The minorrens school itself may not be able to help.

They are able to work together as a team and help each other. This paper will first wrangle the community resources that are available in my area, second how I will make the information available to my families, and finally how it fits with my Vision, Mission, and Philosophy statement.There are hemorrhoid of resources available in my community. There is the Guildford Department of Public health which a few services like child care nursing who are registered nurses who are Child Care Health Consultants (CCHC) with skills in public health, pediatric nursin g and child care licensing requirements.

It is a place that helps families with domestic violence. It is called Family Service of the Piedmont this program offers domestic violence shelters.

(Family Service of the Piedmont, 2010)Since there are a lot of resources in my area there are a few different ways I can get the information to the families at the center. I can have like a community day at the center, invite some of the workers of these agencies to come speak during a parent night, or ask them for flyers/packets of information to lance home to the parents. The preschool working with agencies like these in the community we are able to carry out our mission to serve and act on the needs, rights and well-being of all young children with primary focus on the provision of educational and developmental services and resources.
