Putting Families First Golf Outing
This annual event started a decade ago to benefit three of Long Island's outstanding family support organizations. The Parent-Child Home Program, The National Association of Mothers' Centers, and The Middle Country Library Foundation Family Place Project represent the finest of what Long Island's leadership has to offer families Islandwide and Nationwide.
Believing that all families have strengths, their programs build on the knowledge that good health, early learning, parental involvement and supportive communities play critical roles in young children's successful growth and development.
We had our 10th annual event at The Creek in Locust Valley, NY. You can learn more by visiting www.puttingfamiliesfirstgolf.org.
