    Child Development
    Being a parent is the most important, and sometimes, the hardest job you will ever have. Of course you want what is best for your children: good health, quality education, a safe neighborhood, and hope for a bright future. At the Erie Family Center, we believe that “Parents are their child’s first and most important teachers!” Our family support programs provide services through skilled staff, all in the comfort of your own home and at our family-friendly center.

     

    Each relationship you have with another person reflects the relationship you have with yourself.
