Family Connections Celebrates 40th Anniversary
Family Connections proudly announces our 40th anniversary. Family Connections is a Montana based nonprofit serving 33 counties in Montana. For four decades, Family Connections has been dedicated to making a difference in communities across Montana.
Established in January 1986, Family Connections consistently offered services to help communities thrive and find success. We started in Great Falls, Montana, expanded to serve 6 counties, and now serve 33 counties across Montana. Rooted in service, our services may have changed throughout the years, but at the heart of our work are staff who are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children, families, child care providers, and communities.
Family Connections offers financial assistance to qualifying families to help pay for child care through the Best Beginnings Child Care Scholarship. We also help families find child care with a FREE child care referral, along with information to help families make this important choice for your child. Our staff also provides assistance, referrals to community agencies, and connects families and providers to resources.
“Every day, the work our staff at Family Connections does impacts the future of Montana; through helping families access quality early education and supporting these educators, our program helps children, families, and providers to thrive. While working or attending school, our services provide families with peace of mind that their children are not only safe but also engaged in learning that provides a foundation for the rest of their life. Our programs and services are foundational to the economic success of local communities. We have proudly served Montana for forty years and hope to continue to do so long into the future.” Kim Stull, Executive Director.
