Description:
This school's "Family Closet" lets community members pick up children's clothing and drop it back off when the child outgrows it. DPI-sponsored VISTA Member Brittany Pensis, who helped launch the Family Closet, gives us a tour. The school is Olga Brener Elementary School in Shawano, Wisconsin. Brener staff, families, and community members contribute to and benefit from this resource.
