Join Us in Reviving the Olive Crest Children and Family Resource Center
Thank you for your interest in Olive Crest Children and Family Resource Center (CRFC) in Santa Ana, CA. We hope you will join us in reviving this much needed facility.
An Invitation from Joe Oltmans II, Chairman emeritus of Oltmans Companies
Olive Crest has been a long time steward of our community. We [The Oltmans Foundation] are proud to be in the same league as other like-minded construction leaders who are a force for good. We envision a group of construction experts bound by shared values and a common vision for a better society. Once more, we lean on our subcontracting partners to join in writing Olive Crest's next chapter.
YOUR HELP IS NEEDED
Oltmans Construction Co. and Olive Crest are asking for contributions from our subcontractor partners for the Children and Family Resource Center's rehabilitation project in Santa Ana, CA.
About the Project
Orange County’s state-of-the-art Children and Family Resource Center (CFRC), once fully renovated and expanded, will not only link Olive Crest to more broken families for immediate assistance, but also provide a comprehensive coordination of care. The revival of the CFRC will connect more children, youth, and families, they will be linked to the resources needed to flourish in the community.
Updates and additions planned for the CFRC:
• Expand the existing counseling center to serve up to 350 individuals monthly. The current facility serves 300 individuals per month, with a 20 to 30-day wait list.
• A safe place for victims of human sex trafficking where teenagers can come to find safety, use the computer lab, make private calls, and visit with counselors, who have been “trauma informed” trained. Additional resources include a laundry room, private shower, and pro bono legal help.
•A youth drop-in center where youth and teens can access a computer or resources for leads on jobs, housing, and other vital information. This will also serve as a place for mentors and young adults to socialize and connect in a safe environment.
• Expand and renovate the current Family Visitation Center to create a home and family atmosphere where parents can develop their skills as they seek to reunify with their children.
• Create a more usable space, including atrium play area for children, prayer room, and coffee shop operated by foster teens.
