Child Friendly Community
A PARC Foundation/Freshministries Initiative
PARC Foundation was recently introduced to research conducted by UNICEF by a faith-based intermediary organization, FreshMinistries, based in Jacksonville, Florida. The UNICEF research teaches that the health and economic opportunities available to the children living within the community are a good gauge to determine the community’s overall health and future sustainability. This gauge is referred to as “Child-Friendly.” Based on UNICEF research, a child friendly community uses a holistic approach to tackle the multitude of problems facing underserved children and their families simultaneously.
PARC Foundation uses the extensive research and best practices developed by UNICEF to help set its vision and review its objectives and tactical efforts to accomplish the PARC Foundation mission. www.childfriendlycities.org
