More than 30 agencies and programs gathered for the second annual Family Resource Fair last Wednesday afternoon.

"I'm really excited," said Amy Goode, a social worker for the Hesperia Unified School District. "We had a good turnout."

As a school district social worker, Goode helps to provide a link between the school, home and community.

The event, which attracted parents, students and community members, served as a one-stop location for interested parties to get information on a wide cross section of services.

Attending agencies included First 5 Dental, the HUSD ROP, the American Heart Association, St. Mary's Medical Center, Spring Non-profit Consumer Counseling, Victor Valley College, Hesperia Recreation and Park District, YMCA, WIC, Kids N Care, the San Bernardino County Department of Public Health, Jolly Wally the Clown and more.

The event was held in the school district's building C, which is commonly used as a training center.
