The goals of FAST are to strengthen families, help children succeed in school, assist parents in becoming active participants in their child's school, family fun, and building communication among family members. There were free family meals served weekly, onsite childcare, nightly lottery family prize basket raffles, family games and activities, quiet time for parents to talk about issues, one-on-one quality time with child, and transportation assistance. The program lasted eight weeks and six families graduated. (Photo: Aaron Carpenter/Sentinel-Tribune)
