SUMMER ENRICHMENT PROGRAM

GRANDCHILDREN BEING RAISED BY GRANDPARENTS

JUNE 20-24, 2011

Supporting families across the generations...

The Pinebelt Association for Families (PAFF) is a multiracial 501c3 corporation established in 1999 as a community organization to address the needs of families in southern Mississippi. We support the growth and development of families across the life span including elderly, adults, youth, children, parents and caregivers. We believe...

  • That strong families and strong community go hand-in-hand;
  • That multigenerational strategies are needed to address issues of common concern;
  • That programs should be flexible and continually respond to emerging needs; and
  • That a "family friendly" community does not "just happen" but requires the efforts of the whole community working together.
