For this #ImpactWednesday we are highlighting Fresno EOC WIC! WIC has helped my family put food on the table. Having a baby right now and trying to figure out how to get his food has been stressful. Fresno EOC WIC helped with all my questions, they provided great resources on their website, and the WIC card makes it a lot easier to shop. - Kyah Shepard, WIC participant. https://fresnoeoc.org/wic-makes-it-easy-for-families-to-sh/"... #ImpactWednesday #CommunityActionResponds #CAPmonth2021 #CAP2021 #CommunityActionMonth2021 #FresnoEOCCAP2021

From 0 to 5 to high school students, Fresno EOC ensures all students have a bright future. Programs like AFLP, Head Start 0 to 5, SOUL Charter High School, and YouthBuild Charter Highschool help children and teens become the best version of themselves. These are just a few of the programs at the forefront of #CommunityAction. On this National Teacher’s Appreciation Day, we recognize the work, commitment, and dedication to the community of the staff, teachers, and educators at... the Fresno EOC. SOUL Charter High School was among the first secondary programs in the country to safely reopen after the shutdown. Today, we spotlight SOUL for #communityactionmonth2021 #WeAreFresnoEOC #FresnoEOCCAP2021 https://fresnoeoc.org/teachers-the-soul-of-community-action/
