The Emerald Ball
We are excited to announce our new event: The Emerald Ball on Friday, May 10th, 2024. We are embracing the color green in the name and color scheme for the event because it is the chosen color for Mental Health Awareness Month, which is May. Mental health is fundamental to our work with children and families.

ROOT23
ROOT is Lincoln Families’ biggest fundraising event to raise critical funds supporting our no/low-cost programs for children and families. We need your support to make ROOT a success, and this year, we need your help more than ever as we celebrate our 140th anniversary and raise funds to sustain our transformational programs for the future.
Lincoln Families is providing real solutions to the unique issues children, youth, and families face. At Lincoln Families, we go where children and youth are, walking alongside them to develop skills to stay at home and in school. Teams of skilled and diverse staff work together with youth and families to utilize their strengths and build a plan for success. With this critical support, our children, youth, and families thrive and build bold futures. Our multi-generational model sets a new standard of support that changes lives.
Community Forum
You're cordially invited to attend a presentation of findings from Lincoln Families’ Pittsburg Community Needs and Strengths Assessment!
Background: Over the past few months, Lincoln Families has engaged in a community needs and strengths assessment in Pittsburg in an effort to inform our services in the region and help us understand how we can best support children, youth and families. We are hoping to share the findings as well as engage in an interactive discussion about next steps with Pittsburg youth and families, including the many community partners and residents that have participated in focus group discussions and completed the assessment survey.
Where: This discussion will take place via Zoom, please register here to attend.
We are excited to engage in this discussion with the community and we hope to see you there!
