Abstarct Circle Shape

Your family's experience is an important key to creating much needed change in the systems that serve our community. We strengthen your ability to advocate for your families needs individually and systemically.

We believe in the power of play!

At Harambee FRC we practice self-directed education through the power of play! Our Family Resource Center and programming offers a safe place for kids of all ages and abilities to test limits and be encouraged to try out new ways of thinking, learning, creating, and processing their environment.
