Jimmie B. Keel Regional Library, 2902 W. Bearss Ave. in Tampa

FREE


In today's fluid society, many grandparents and other relations find themselves responsible for the rearing of their non-birth offspring. Come to the library in a partnered program with the County's Children's Home to examine the programs and special products available to this unique, but ever-growing group. Topics include the Hillsborough Kinship Care Program, its allied partners, and information on accessing necessary family services, support systems, reducing family stress, promoting family stability, and linking children to childcare, afterschool care, and summer programs. Also available will be health and wellness accessibility, along with legal guidance and assistance.

For adults.

Presented in partnership with the Hillsborough County Children's Home. For more information about this and other FREE programs @ your library®, call 813-273-3652 or visit www.hcplc.org.
