From the Blog
After 20 years of providing intentional, transformative play experiences to children experiencing housing insecurity and homelessness, Playtime Project has a lot to celebrate. Playtime's growth in 2023 illustrates how our hard work over the years has, and continues to, produce positive results. 2023 was a year of exciting growth. Here are a few of the year’s highlights.
January is Human Trafficking Prevention Month. During the month, organizations, agencies, and individuals raise awareness, educate, and advocate to prevent human trafficking in the United States. What does this have to do with Playtime Project, and the children and families we serve?
As Playtime Project’s 20th Anniversary year comes to a close, we would like to reflect on how much we have grown, how we have adapted to new challenges that arose, and how our commitment to children and families experiencing housing insecurity has remained our driving force.
