Community Service Project 2009-2010
Our guild, in conjunction with the Cartersville Parks and Recreation Department, has chosen The Advocates for Children's "First Step Program" as our annual community service project. First Steps is a program of trained volunteers who visit new moms at Cartersville Medical Center and offer emotional support, parenting education and referrals to other community services. The program is free and available to all moms giving birth at the medical center. Contact with the parents is continued via phone over a three month period. As our part of the program we are making small quilts for the babies.
