Mission Statement

Established in 1995 with funding from the Rhode Island Foundation, Connecting for Children and Families (CCF) is a community-based, non-profit organization located in Woonsocket, one of Rhode Island’s core urban cities. Our mission, to transform the lives of Woonsocket children through high quality educational opportunities and family support, is accomplished through strong community partnerships and advocacy.

CCF offers high quality programs and initiatives, and the scope of services and numbers of families served has grown to make CCF one of the premier family support organizations in Northern Rhode Island.

CCF makes a difference in Northern RI by:

• Helping children get a good start in life with high quality early childhood programs.
• Connecting families with supportive services, enabling their children to succeed in school.
• Ensuring that families live in a safe and welcoming community, where there are many opportunities to succeed.
