    Family Resource Centers are the one-stop shop for parents that bring together community resources and most importantly inform, educate, and advocate for parents to gain access to necessary opportunities so they can provide a stable and healthy living environment for the well-being of their children. This includes helping families to secure basic essentials such as food, clothing, shelter and intermediate preventative needs including counseling, medical, dental, and other family support services.    Since 2002, Building A Generation has partnered with the Redlands Unified School District and First 5 San Bernardino to provide the Family Resource Center Program at four locations on-site of four elementary schools. These locations best benefit agency target population; those families living in areas of the East Valley that demonstrates areas where homelessness, drug & alcohol abuse, violence, and school truancy is prevalent. The program serves families living in the entire geographic region of the Redlands Unified School District, 147 square miles covering Redlands, Mentone, and some parts of San Bernardino, Loma Linda, Forest Falls, and Higland.
