Come and see us at the Purple Building or in one of our rural communities!

What does it cost to participate?

River Source Family Center programs are free of charge. There is no cost to participate in any of our programs. There are no income guidelines to participate, and all families are welcome to participate. River Source Family Center is a non-profit organization that is funded, in part, by local and state grants, foundations, and donations.

Who are our programs for?

Our programs are for any family who is pregnant or has children newborn to 5 years of age.  You can be a family who is having their first baby or their fifth baby. If you are a parent/caregiver/caring adult who is looking for social connections and child development opportunities, River Source Family Center is the place for you!

We Believe

ALL parents/caregivers can use support and connection opportunities.
Parents/Caregivers are the first and most important teachers in their child’s life.
Diversity is a celebration of who we are as an individual and a community.
ALL families are welcome.
Play IS learning. Children have the right to learn, grow, and thrive in their childhood.
