Foster Grandparent Program
Project Concerns Foster Grandparent Program (FGP) enables children with either exceptional or special needs to achieve improved physical, mental, emotional, and social development while providing Senior Citizens an enriching and rewarding volunteer experience.
Through the program, Foster Grandparent volunteers mentor elementary school students to improve reading, math or spelling skills, offer emotional support to children who have been abused and neglected, mentor troubled teenagers, and care for infants and children with physical and developmental disabilities. In the process, Foster Grandparents strengthen the community by providing valuable youth services and by building bridges across generations.
