Our Stories

PB&J Family Services serves children & families across Bernalillo, Sandoval, and Valencia counties. The stories of the children and families that work with PB&J are an inspiration of hope, perseverance, and resiliency.

“Since I have arrived in the PB&J program, I have learned to bond with my son, I have learned to co-parent with my son’s mom, and I have also learned to discipline my son in a good way. I have also learned a lot about pregnancy and the different trimesters from 1-3 and what is going on in each trimester. I have also learned how to help my son improve his speech and also his learning. I have learned to be a good father. This program will really benefit future fathers that wish to become better fathers.” –PB&J Dad

“My child attended a private preschool prior to attending Prek at PB&J. My child is very shy and would never talk about school. Once my child attended Prek at PB&J she started talking about friends, her teachers and the fun she had during the day. My daughter talked about her love for school and love for PB&J on daily basis. My daughter has thrived academically since leaving PB&J but most importantly Pre-K provided a positive and loving foundation for education.”-PB&J Mom

“Children’s Support Group has been such an amazing program to manage. I am constantly reminded that we are making a positive impact on children that are underserved because most programs are aimed at children under the age of 5 years old. These children are exposed to so many positive social-emotional skills in an environment where the facilitators are driven to do the best work that they can. I am grateful to manage my team and get to work with these wonderful children.”- PB&J Children’s Support Group Manager
