Mountain Community Education

& Outreach

Mountain Community Education & Outreach is a program designed to bring education and informational opportunities, as well as support, to the community through monthly information sessions that will be free to the public as well as specific, targeted programs. Area experts will offer information that will help to support a variety of needs within the community.

From nutritional information for athletes to the mental health and wellness of children and their parents, various seminars will be provided to offer the community much needed support and information to help enhance and better their lives.

Such programs as Mountain Community Crossings, an adult special needs program, and GAP (Grandparents Again Parenting,) will be implemented to support those populations that may not be receiving services currently. An interactive children’s museum will provide area families with opportunities for educational, learning-based as well as historical and fun activities within Rabun County.

Information on where to seek community services as well as overall health and wellness information will be provided for anyone who needs it. Collaboration with area experts to provide an informational newsletter and regular newspaper article will be done to increase the reach of information to the community.

Request Information

“As a mom of four children, I have found that finding childcare has been the most difficult and stressful part of being a working mom. I have had multiple experiences of good and bad child-care situations that have negatively impacted my family, both emotionally and mentally. Having a place like MLE to send your child to, knowing their needs are being met, is priceless. MLE has offered a place where my child feels safe, secure, and loved. A place where they can not only learn educational standards but lessons about Jesus and loving one another as Christ loves us. A place where their physical needs and emotional needs are being met through social interactions with adults and peers. MLE has brought a sense of security and safety to my family during a very difficult time of trying to finding childcare. My child feels safe and secure which allows for him to be able to develop and grow appropriately. Giving families a place like MLE to send their children is critical to the continued development of our community and the development of our future… our kids.”
