The new initiative will provide NEFSC’s parenting and pregnancy program clients with the opportunity to earn “baby bucks” to purchase care items in the Baby Boutique. Items include clothing, diapers, blankets, bottles, strollers, shoes, rattles and baby powder.
NEFSC staff and clients were joined by Heather Huot, Secretary for Catholic Human Services. ••
