WAVERLY TWP. — The Waverly Community House, 1115 North Abington Road, will hold an open house and ribbon-cutting ceremony to showcase the Maria Wilson Family Room, which was recently remodeled with funding from the Karam Family Oktoberfest, held in September. The renovations and new furnishings were designed and provided by Val Langan of Woods and Company.
The free community event will take place at 11 a.m. Wednesday, Jan. 8.
The room will be utilized by newly appointed Family Resource Coordinator Hanora Jones. Families and caregivers will be provided with a comprehensive approach to family wellbeing and development. Parents and caregivers will receive guidance and support during critical early developmental states.
The Family Resource Coordinator will offer workshops, support groups and resources specifically designed to empower parents in supporting their children’s growth and development, fostering strong family relationships and promoting positive outcomes. The Family Resource program is made possible through a grant from the Eureka Foundation and will benefit several key groups in the community.
