PAY IT FORWARD
Every year we do a supply drive for a worthy cause to pay it forward as we begin the Thanksgiving season. I would like to request that each member of our SLJC classes please bring one of the following items to donate to members of the My Journey Matters program. Class of 2024, you will hear more about this awesome program at Government Day. The following items are needed:
Diapers (any size - newborn and up)
Baby formula
Baby onesies (all sizes)
Baby/Kids Books
Baby toys
Gift cards to grocery store, Target, Walmart

A Little More About This Effort
My Journey Matters is beginning a new parenting class session with roughly 25 participants. These are young, court-involved (serious charges they are trying to work down on convictions) little or no support, minimal education for the most part and babies/young kids to care for. Two people from CHOA will be talking to them about safety for children (neglect hazards), infant safe sleep, bonding and general parenting tips. MJM is trying to change parents lives and recognize their kids can be a big motivator for change.
