In August 2009, HACoLA’s Resident Services Program held its annual “Back-To-School-Jams” and community fairs at the Carmelitos, Nueva Maravilla, Harbor Hills, and South Scattered Sites housing communities.  These annual events promote education and motivate youth returning to school by highlighting the array of educational services that are available onsite and in the community.  

Each Back-to-School-Jam featured information booths, free backpacks filled with school supplies, books, food, music, and motivational speakers.  Parents, caregivers, and their children attended the event together and completed enrollment applications for the various after-school programs.  The Resident Services Program staff looks forward to partnering with public housing youth and their families to make this another successful and educational school year!
