The CRC provides nutritious meals to its students and the broader community, afterschool tutoring and homework help, counseling and therapy services, space and equipment for outdoor recreation, speech and language therapy, and enrichment activities. These enrichment activities include time dedicated to reading comprehension, STEM learning, and workshops in the arts, such as art therapy, dance, and drama. In order to support the whole family, the CRC also provides bilingual parenting classes and financial literacy classes. To best serve children who have experienced trauma, the CRC also provides enrolled children and their families with access to Masters of Social Work interns supervised by a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and a Behavioral Health Therapist. By providing all children with counseling and wellness programming, the CRC helps its participating students overcome their trauma and the barriers it can build in their lives. For children who are not yet enrolled in school, the Children's Resource Center also provides an early childhood education program with the goal of preparing young children for kindergarten and boosting emotional resilience. For children who have graduated from elementary school, the CRC also provides a youth program wherein adolescents who have aged out of the afterschool program continue to attend and provide mentorship to a younger child. The Santa Ana CRC also occasionally hosts Illumination Foundation Mobile Health and Mobile Vision fairs, which are available to both enrolled children and the broader community. These help address barriers to academic achievement as impactful—yet surmountable—as lacking a pair of glasses a child needs to read their textbooks at school. Throughout programming, the Children's Resource Center operates with Restorative Justice Practices. CRC staff moderate circles to address conflict and build community and empathy. In cases of conflict, students are not asked blame -placing questions, such as "What did you do?" or "Why did you do it?" Instead, they are asked what they were thinking at the time and what effects they think their actions may have had. Restorative Justice Practices interrupt the school -to -prison pipeline by building consequences for harmful actions that reintegrate students back into their community, rather than push them out.
