Important Update
As of May 15, 2021, please check the Calendar of Activities that include both virtual and outdoor in-person activities at your local BFEN sites. Outdoor activities do require registration. CDC guidelines remain in place to ensure the safety of staff, families and children. Thank you for your cooperation. Please check your local Family Engagement Network for neighborhood locations and current updates.
