NEWTON, N.J. (Sussex County) — Parents, caregivers and children are invited to attend a Family Expo later this month at Project Self-Sufficiency, offering educational resources, interactive exhibits and activities for all ages.
The event, hosted by the Journey Family Success Center, will take place April 30 from 4 to 6 p.m. at Project Self-Sufficiency, 127 Mill St.
Organizers said the expo will feature hands-on exhibits, games and opportunities for families to learn about childhood development while connecting with community organizations. Dinner will be provided, and attendees will be eligible to receive a gift card.
“The Family Expo promises a delightful experience for families, with hands-on exhibits that encourage participation and various activities that are designed to educate as well as entertain,” said Deborah Berry-Toon, Executive Director of Project Self-Sufficiency. “This event will also highlight summer family activities, making it a perfect opportunity to plan summer outings while connecting with other families. We are grateful to the social service agencies and healthcare organizations who will be on hand to share their expertise with local families.”
Participants will be able to explore Dot, the Sussex County Library System’s mobile library, and take ambulance tours provided by the Newton Volunteer First Aid & Rescue Squad.
