The community of Coolidge is gearing up for an event that promises to deliver an array of free services to families in need. Slated for November 2nd, the 2024 Family Resource Event will be held at the Coolidge Unified School District Office. The event, running from 8 am to noon, is a testament to the power of collaboration, bringing together dozens of resources all under one roof.
According to the Pinal County Attorney's Office, the affair is set to include dental and hearing services, haircuts, sports physicals, legal aid, and more. This initiative not only speaks to the necessity of basic health and wellness services but also responds to the seasonal need for winter clothing—a concern as the Arizona chill approaches. The event is free, aiming to alleviate some of the financial burdens many Coolidge families face.
Families attending can expect to find support in a welcoming environment that acknowledges the varied needs of a community. The partners involved are no strangers to service and include Nextera Energy, United Way of Pinal County, and Compassion Connect Arizona, among others. Each organization brings its own expertise and services, ensuring a comprehensive range of assistance for all who come through the doors.
Community events like the Family Resource Event are crucial in knitting together the fabric of a society that often feels fragmented by socioeconomic divides. By offering services such as mammograms and legal support, the event goes beyond immediate needs and addresses long-term wellness and stability for the residents of Coolidge. These efforts reflect the shared mission of the partners including Arizona Complete Health and the Coolidge Chamber of Commerce, aiming to empower the local populace.
