Last week, we hosted our annual Bronx Week event at the Children’s Aid Bronx Family Center. Organized by our Office of Public Policy in collaboration with our Child Welfare and Family Services Division, the event took place during the borough’s official Bronx Week. The event marks the 16th year Children’s Aid services have operated in the borough.
Activities included face painting, a bouncy house, and raffles that were complimented by sweet and healthy treats. A representative from Marcos Crespo’s office also stopped by to help raffle off some prizes to children in attendance. Our Bronx Week event was a fun way to engage our families and to let the community know about our range of services present in the area. Children’s Aid operates 12 community schools in the borough, offers early childhood classes, runs a youth center and health clinic, has foster care and adoption services, and a variety of nutrition programs.
