The Parent Resource Center in Hempstead offers the community dozens of free services.

"It's our first full year. We have developed everything in this community space," explained program director, Tracy Williams.

Some of the programs include wellness, holistic classes, money management, job placement, im​mi​gra​tion services, gardening and much more.

The center is open five days a week for the community.
