Family Nights in the Girls Home

By Christina Cummins | Operations Coordinator

Why are Wednesdays special for HALO youth in the Jefferson City Girls Home? It's Family Night!

HALO believes that every child should have the foundation of a family. One that provides guidance, love, and a place to call home. Because home is where a family lives, and that is why family night is so important to show HALO youth why they deserve to feel loved!

Family Night activities bring joy and laughter with spending time with HALO Staff and other residents in the Home. Sitting around and playing board games, like Apples to Apples, brings a sense of normality to the craziness of any week. Art projects allow HALO youth to make something beautiful that they are proud of, like flower pots for succulents they can take care of! From mundane tasks to memorable activities like taste testing a variety of hot sauces, the girls in the HALO Home bond with one another and the staff just like a family!

Because of your support, HALO youth in the Jefferson City Girls Home can rely on the love and laughter every Wednesday with their HALO family!
