The Guiding Star Project believes motherhood is a valuable asset to society and honors the daily work and learning of women, men, and children through enriching family support services and support.
Drop-In Child Watch
Each of our centers provides onsite drop-in child watch for mothers and families receiving services provided at our Guiding Star Centers. This service provides a safe and nurturing place for children to play while their parents visit the center to recharge and re-engage their sacred task of parenting.
