Resources for Families & Children
(Ages 0 - 5yrs)
This guide is a helpful directory for families with little ones (ages 0–5) in Riverside, San Bernardino, and nearby counties. It points parents and caregivers to programs that can help with food, housing, rent, and utilities, along with healthcare, WIC, and nutrition support. It also includes legal aid, tribal TANF programs (for cash assistance, childcare, and cultural activities), and services for families facing tough times like homelessness or trauma. In short, it’s a one-stop resource to connect families—especially Native families—with the support they need to stay healthy, safe, and thriving.
