Part-time members commit to a minimum of 20 hours per week and earn an educational award of $2,362.) For more information please call Program Director Carol Russell at 276-2200 ext 103.

"I have worked in Project TLC: To Love A Child this year. It is because of their support and encouragement that I have had the opportunity to be involved in all of the different programs and have learned so much." --Nadine Feraco
