FACT Opens a New Hub for Genesee County Families!
FACT has some exciting updates and milestones to share with you. November has been a remarkable month for FACT. Our Flint Community Service Hub is THRIVING. We officially opened the Hub on October 1st and we are already making an incredible impact on families and our community.
On November 19th, over 60 attendees joined us to celebrate the Flint Community Service Hub's OPEN HOUSE. Families, service agencies, legislators, and foundation representatives from Genesee and Saginaw counties toured our facility including the three themed rooms, 'Sunroom', 'Focus Factory,' and 'Kidtopia'. Each room was carefully designed to foster connection and support for families, professionals, and children. I was very pleased to see so many faces and feel the shared enthusiasm for our mission.
We thank the Community Foundation of Greater Flint and the Flint Child Health and Development Fund “Flint Kids Fund” of the Foundation for Flint.
Their generous support helped create FACT’s Flint Community Service Hub a new, innovative, and trauma-informed space. Hundreds of families will benefit from coordinated services and strengthen their community connections. Thank you for your dedication to empowering Flint’s families and building a brighter future.
Speaking of building a brighter future for our community, since October 1st, the Hub has been buzzing with activity:
Nearly 300 community members have utilized the space.
67% of open hours have seen community engagement.
We’ve hosted 8 types of engagements: remote office work, family visitation, playtime, parent cafes, resource distribution, training sessions, envisioning groups, and staff meetings.
The FACT Hub is available to local organizations! You can now reserve space at the Hub for your team meetings or events. information on the rooms is available before you book! Schedule your time here: mi-fact.org/booking
As we reflect on the progress made in the past month, I want to thank you for being part of FACT’s journey. Your support fuels our efforts to provide safe, welcoming spaces where families and communities thrive.
