On the following Monday, July 30^th Geoffrey Ketcham, staff attorney at Northeast Legal aid will inform grandparents of the civil and legal assistance provided by his organization.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions or for further information.

 

Best,

Edaville Railroad- email for discount code

 

 

I am sorry but due to past difficulties, I can no accept checks from anyone other than DCF employees.  I also can not accept post dated checks etc. It is too difficult to keep track of and someone I always end up short L  If you are buying more than one park at a time, please write separate checks for each park.  It is easier for me to separate by park and deposit as needed.

Gloucester Stage Company

 

 

 

Hi Everyone:

 

I don't know if any of you have school aged or older kids placed in the Gloucester, Rockport area that are interested in theater but Gloucester Stage Company has some full scholarships for their  Youth acting workshops that they teach there.  The contact person is Heidi Dallin, phone # 978-281-4433. 

 

 

Caregiver Hotline

 

There is now a free statewide call-in line for caregivers of children struggling with substance use.  The service is the result of a collaboration between The Grayken Center for Addiction at Boston Medical Center and the Partnership for Drug-Free Kids, a national non-profit.  

The calls are answered by trained parent support specialists, many of whom are parents themselves.  They are available for consultation by calling 844-319-5999, or by texting HOPEMA to 55753.

 

Please help to spread the word about this free service.
