Girl Scout Troop 918 Donation to WCC/TLC program!!

The Girl Scout troop 918 visited the Center and gave a wonderful donation to our children.
They created play boxes for our TLC program. The boxes were filled with items and toys
that help children develop their sensory and motor skills.
The Teaching and Learning for all Children (TLC) project is a family centered, strength-based
program in which the primary goal is to empower families with all their special needs. TLC serves
families with children 0-5. The program came to life 3 years ago as Westside Children’s Center was
awarded the First 5 California Special Needs Demonstration Project Grant.
TLC is a work in progress , taking every opportunity that comes its way to benefit families with
young children. Working with Girl Scout Troop 918 was an incredible opportunity to continue to
promote interactions between parents and children. The families that come our way often times
lack the basic resources to engage in activities with their children, given these “play boxes”
is one less barrier and many more opportunities.
We are grateful to Troop 918 for their efforts and generosity making a difference in the lives
of the children in our TLC program.
