ASHLAND – Catholic Charities Ashland County will host a Community Baby Shower on Thursday, Oct. 26, from 9 a.m. until noon at the Wellness & Community Center at Brethren Care Village, 2130 Center St., in Ashland.

This event is designed to bring together local healthcare providers, community and civic officials to counsel families about resources available during pregnancy and after childbirth.

With the support of local businesses and individuals, we are also collecting supplies that expectant parents need to welcome their babies and give them a healthy start in life.

Please go to www.ccdocle.org/babyshower to register for the event. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Kimberlee Sheller at 419-289-1903 or via email at kdsheller@ccdocle.org.

Catholic Charities provides these services to families via the Help Me Grow Home Visiting Program. This is a free, evidence-based home visiting program offered throughout the state of Ohio that provides education on infant growth, development, and parenting skills.

Catholic Charities offers at-home support for pregnant women, new parents, and caregivers who reside within the eight counties that make up the Diocese of Cleveland.

The goal is to make sure all children have access to the same opportunities in life beginning at a very early age.
