FIPP Early Head Start Family Resource Center in Alexander County
FIPP operates a Family Resource Center in Taylorsville, North Carolina. The Resource Center is a place where all families of young children can relax, share information, find support, and play with their children in a nurturing environment. We schedule regular early learning groups at convenient times for parents and their children. Often these learning groups feature special activities such as child-led cooking experiences, music and movement, and literacy activities. We also feature special playgroups at community locations such as the library, local parks, and the YMCA.
