GrowingTogether

🍂 October is here at Growing Together! 🍁

Come enjoy FREE playgroups, classes, connection, and a little fall fun all month long at the Growing Together Family Community Center!

We have groups for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and families throughout the week — including Music & Movement, Read-Play-Talk, creative playgroups, toddler and baby groups, and more. 💛

Our Diaper Closet is also available during designated October hours for families needing diapers, pull-ups, wipes, and formula. New Location: 1021 NW Highland Ave., Grants Pass. https://www.growingtogethergp.org/

Find your family’s next favorite read at Growing Together! Families are welcome to pick out a free book to take home and enjoy together.

Have children’s books you’re ready to pass along? We’re happy to accept gently used books for other families to take home.

You don’t need to bring a book to take one. Stop by and see what catches your little reader’s eye!

Oregon Parents: Please Share Your Child care Experience

Do you have a child under age 13? We invite you to participate in Oregon’s statewide survey about childcare costs, availability, and access.

Local partners provided additional funding to increase participation among Southern Oregon families. Your response will help ensure that the survey produces meaningful local results and can help inform future child care and early education policy decisions affecting our region.

The survey takes approximately 10–15 minutes and is available in English and Spanish. Participants may enter a drawing for one of 30 $50 gift cards redeemable at an Oregon-based business.

Take the survey: ovbc.info/childcare

You can also access the survey by scanning the QR code on the attached flyer.
Survey closes: September 21

Parking Update for Growing Together Families

Wednesday–Friday, part of our parking lot will be unavailable due to construction. Some families will need to park on the street during this time or in overflow parking (see map below). Please allow a few extra minutes to park and walk safely to the center.

Thank you for your patience as improvements continue. We look forward to seeing you!
