Bridgeport Family Resource Center
What is a Family Resource Center?
The Kentucky Family Resource and Youth Service Centers were established as a component of the Kentucky Education Reform Act (KERA) of 1990.
The mission of these school-based centers is to help academically at-risk students succeed in school by helping to minimize or eliminate non-cognitive barriers to learning.
