The Teen Impact Center offers weekly programs and activities to teens and families and is available to rent for special occasions.
The Center served an average of 1,000 teens per month who participated in the activities offered.
Letter from the Executive Director Family Resource and Referral Center (FRRC) continues to
play a vital role in San Joaquin County’s economic health. The
$26 million dollars in child care payments dispersed into the
community by the organization enables parents to work while
their children learn and local businesses to thrive. Connecting
parents to quality child care that meets the needs of the family
remains at the core of FRRC’s mission.
Major accomplishments for the 2013-14 Fiscal Year included:
completing a merger with Charterhouse Center for Families;
successfully operating the Teen Impact Center in partnership with
the City of Stockton for the third year and renegotiating the
contract for future years; and expanding to provide Head Start
Child Development Services.
On behalf of the Board of Directors and the organization,
thank you to our community partners for continued collaborations
that result in positive outcomes for the children and families we
mutually serve.
In partnership, Kay G. Ruhstaller
FRRC’s Teen Impact Center~A Success Story The greatest demonstration of the Teen Impact Center’s (TIC)
success is evidenced by five youth who came to the Center through
different paths and now work for FRRC.
♦ Jenny Kuan, an Edison High School graduate, was on the first Teen
Advisory Council after the Center reopened in partnership with FRRC.
A fourth-year student at UOP majoring in Psychology, Jenny works at
the TIC as a Teen Center Assistant.
♦ Jose Cuevas, a Chavez High graduate, came to the TIC through a
Back 2 BAC (Back to Believing & Changing Stockton) event in
partnership with the YMCA. Jose works as a Teen Center Aide and
attends San Joaquin Delta College.
♦ Gabe Delao originally came to the TIC to play in a handball
tournament and was then drawn into the recording studio, writing and
recording approximately 30 songs at the Center. After graduating
from Edison High, and as a result of the positive growth he exhibited
at the Center, Gabe was hired to work at FRRC’s Robinhood office and
plans to enroll in classes at San Joaquin Delta College.
♦ Mariah Harris and Ana Villagomez, graduates of Venture Academy
and Stagg High, respectively, started working at the Center via
WorkNET as TIC Aides learning valuable leadership and job skills.
Success begets success . . . and our dream is to continue building
on our successes here!
