Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Call 215-703-7756 during office hours to ask about the waitlist for basic goods and the next parenting class. You need to be pregnant or raising a child aged 0 to 8, and live in Philadelphia County..

Check with the group before you show up. You need to sign up first.

What to expect

After you send the online Referral and Interest Form, a Care Coordinator contacts you to set up an in-person intake, where eligibility is decided. The parenting class page says it suits caregivers who self-refer or are referred by an agency, including families involved with child welfare or family court. It does not say how long a class runs or whether children come along.

Tips for your first visit

  • Have your child's age and your Philadelphia address ready, since eligibility depends on both.
  • Call during office hours: Monday and Thursday 12 to 7 pm, Friday 10 am to 3 pm.
  • The page does not say how to get there by bus or where to park, so ask when you call.

Newcomer welcome

Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: The goods program is full with a waitlist, the parenting class cohort that was open has closed, and new families start with a referral form and an in-person intake, so there is no walk-in step..

Cost and commitment

Cost
Free. Services are free and no insurance is needed. Goods depend on donations and stock on hand.
