Outreach
Family Development Centers
New Opportunities Outreach has a Family Development Center office located in each of the counties we serve: Audubon, Calhoun, Carroll, Dallas, Greene, Guthrie, and Sac. We have staff that works with low-income families on a daily basis to meet basic needs and develop their own capacity to do so.
Staff Community Involvement
Family Development Center staff work with each family connecting them with programs offered through New Opportunities as well as additional resources and referrals in each county. Family Development Center Staff members are actively involved in the communities they work in to stay current and knowledgeable of programs available to help the families in need.
New Opportunities is one of 16 Community Action Agencies service the state of Iowa. Iowa’s Community Action Agencies are local-based private, non-profit organizations that network with a wide array of local organizations to enhance the opportunities for low-income Iowans (children and families) to meet basic needs and develop their own capacity to do so.
