Overview

Brief Program Summary: MSD Warren Township utilized some of its CARES ACT funding to convert a closed school building into the Moorehead Community Resource Center, which opened on October 31, 2020. The Moorehead Community Resource Center provides mentorships, food pantry, a space for students to study and a one-stop shop for accessing resources. The Center is staffed by a navigator and social worker that help identify resources that are available. MSD Warren Township is partnering with Eskenazi Health, Reach For Youth, and the Indiana Department of Child Services to provide on-site services, and the Warren Township Police Department is also headquartered at the Center. Most recently, the Center partnered with Indiana Black Expo and other community agencies to host a three day housing assistance workshop to provide support for families facing eviction. The Resource Center also works closely with the team of Family Engagement Liaisons from each school building to maintain relationships with all MSD Warren Families and connect students and families to individual family needs.
