Construction Progress
We are excited to announce the selection of Comer GC, Inc. as General Contractor for the Family First construction project. They successfully completed a large school project with the City of Kent, among other recent relevant experience.
They are joined by the design team led by Baylis Architects. “Being a wellness center, the idea of health was at the heart of the design with lots of elements that link the building to nature and the outside environment to aide wellbeing and healing,” Meredith Everist, principal at Baylis, shared.
“We also made sure to include lots of large windows throughout the building so that wherever you are there is a connection to the outside,” Everist continued.
The project site also has a large “mobile bus zone” where a mobile library or mobile clinics can be parked to enhance the services at the center.

Supporting Our Community
Thanks to your financial contributions, and the support of a wide variety of philanthropy partners and community organizations, the Family First Community Center Foundation was able to provide immediate relief to area families and seniors during the early weeks of the 2020 pandemic. We delivered nearly 50,000 essential items and meals for our region’s most vulnerable children and adults. We appreciate everyone who contributed to this imperative work.
