The mission at the Chatham Partnership for Children aims to make sure that young children are fed, safe, and prepared for school so they can be launched on a path for ultimate success when they walk in on the first day of Pre-Kindergarten. From supplying diapers, books from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, food, coaching and more, the caring staff and volunteers at the Chatham Partnership for Children consider the social, emotional, and educational needs of children, parents, and caregivers.
