Why Do Children Need Community?

When it comes to raising a family, people tell you it takes a village.Within this episode we are going to explore the importance of that community for children. Kaydee Tran, Match Support Advisor of Big Brothers Big Sisters, and Michelle Sink, Area Director of Big Brothers Big Sisters, help us understand what that village means to kids and how it impacts them.
