City of Santa Clarita recognizes“Person of Kindness and Character” Jan Volbeda
Jan has great compassion for people and has been faithful to volunteer her time here at the Center to help pregnant women in need. She teaches our Life Skills Class providing much needed pregnancy education to our girls who choose to keep their babies. The Life Skills Program equips first time moms to understand pre-natal development, her own physical changes during pregnancy, labor and deliver and early infant care. She teaches with a grace and wisdom that empowers these young women as they move forward into a new chapter of life. Her passion and heart to help others motivates her vigor in serving the community in such a way and works behind the scenes with little recognition. Jan continues to press forward, even on those days she prepares for an empty classroom. She is faithful to return the next week until those who are in need do come. As a mother herself, she is able to share that mother’s heart with the new-mommies-to-be. We have seen many mothers share gratitude for her service after they hold their little one in their arms and feel better prepared for what lies ahead.
