Plans are underway to create a community support center on the campus of the Masonic Home for Children in Oxford to offer resources, training and other services to families in the community.
Through a partnership with the Granville County United Way, FGV Smart Start, Granville Education Foundation and Baptist Children’s Home the Masonic Home for Children invites interested community agencies to an open house on Thursday, Sept. 15. Drop by between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. to learn more about how to identify and address family needs, provide services, network and make referrals for services on behalf of families in need.
Some of the proposed services include:
- Parenting Education
- Nutrition Classes
- Family Counseling
- Foster Care Training
- Adolescent Group Counseling
- Financial Management Education

- Networking to a variety of services
Visitors can come to the Parham Cottage at the children’s home, whose main campus is located at 600 College St., Oxford.
