Child Guidance Resource Centers recognizes that strong communities are built when every child, family, and individual has the opportunity to thrive, feel valued, and access the support they need.

Today, we honor Juneteenth, a day that commemorates freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of equality. Juneteenth reminds us of the importance of listening, learning, and working together to create a more equitable future for all.

As we celebrate this historic day, we reflect on the strength, contributions, and achievements of Black Americans and recommit ourselves to fostering hope, healing, and opportunity in the communities we serve.

❤️💛💚 Happy Juneteenth, from our CGRC community!

🎉 Big News from CGRC! 🎉

As we celebrate 70 years of healing, hope, and service, Child Guidance Resource Centers is honored to announce that we have been awarded a $508,638 grant from the William Penn Foundation to support our Incredible Years: Early Childhood Behavioral Health Initiative.

This caregiver-focused program helps families with children ages 0–8 recognize and address emotional and behavioral concerns early through education, group sessions, home-based coaching, and ongoing support. By empowering caregivers with tools and resources before challenges escalate, we can help children thrive and reduce the need for more intensive services later.

The two-year initiative will serve families throughout Philadelphia and include a caregiver "warm line" that provides real-time, non-crisis guidance and support.
