Family Programming

Silver Spring provides many opportunities throughout the year for parents and children to experience an evening of educational and recreational programs. Among these activities are Back to School Night, which provides school supplies to some 500 school age children; Safe Halloween; a Reading is Fundamental book distribution; and a Black History Month program. One book is selected each Family Night and, after reading it, families participate in a related art project, giving them ideas for activities that they can do at home. Support for this program comes from our United Way Literacy First grant.
