Brightpoint Family Resource Center- Bloomington Brightpoint engages with over 30,000 children youth and families each year in 67 counties in Illinois

Bloomington Crisis Nursery provides nurturing and attentive care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days per year to children ages birth through six years old. The Crisis Nursery understands many families are isolated with little to no support system. The Crisis Nursery staff offer a helping hand to relieve parental stress caused by illness, homelessness, domestic violence, mental health and substance abuse issues, home crisis, and for medical and other appointments. The goal of the Crisis Nursery program is to provide overburdened parents with facilitated breaks, crisis counseling, stress reduction therapy, family stability and positive parenting education. The Crisis Nursery offers supportive services that link parents and caregivers to community resources to help them cope and problem-solve. Most importantly, research has shown the Crisis Nursery helps to greatly reduce parental stress that leads to child maltreatment. In its holistic approach to crisis management, the program provides basic needs services including access to necessities such as diapers, wipes and formula. The Crisis Nursery is an active and founding member of the Illinois Crisis Nursery Coalition.

Last month, a few of our incredible staff members had the opportunity to step away from the ringing phones, case notes, and daily responsibilities to participate in valuable professional development trainings.

These trainings help strengthen our skills, expand our knowledge, and ensure we continue providing the highest quality care, support, and services to the children and families we serve. We are proud to invest in our team so they can continue making a meaningful difference every day. 💙
