SC Parents, powered by Aunt Bertha, is a free online platform that helps connect families to local free and reduced-cost social service programs in their community. Parents and caregivers simply enter their ZIP code into the search bar to return an array of free and reduced-cost assistance in their communities, including parenting services, food, housing, financial and legal help, and health services.
This tool is also available at no charge to community-based nonprofit organizations. Using scParents.org, they can coordinate family assistance on a myriad of services to address food insecurity, health issues and transportation dilemmas with access to free features like referral and outcome tracking, referral screening tools, appointments scheduling, and personalized analytics.
Organizations can register by visiting search.scparents.org and clicking “Claim a Program” in the bottom right of the page. Listing and claiming a program can be done quickly, and it gives community-based organizations the ability to update their services and contact information.
For questions or assistance in claiming your program, contact Amelia Wilks, Children’s Trust community relations coordinator, at awilks@scchildren.org.
