The Family Expo also provides an excellent opportunity for parents to learn about the myriad of resources available to them.
"Being a parent is the most wonderful job you can have, but sometimes it gets incredibly challenging, and it's important to know you are not out there alone," said Trust President and CEO James Haj. "There are so many services and providers throughout this community to help with all aspects of raising children and building stronger families, and the Family Expo is the place where you'll find them."
