                       Wednesday, April 15, 2015

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of 35 years 
of commitment to young mothers of Bucks and Montgomery counties by 
Child Home and Community.
  Working with local schools and hospitals, Child Home and Community 
provides assistance and educational opportunities for young parents 
from all backgrounds to be better, healthier parents.
  CHC's programs--including free childbirth classes, support groups, 
career counseling and other advocacy services--help address real needs 
in our communities and bring about tangible benefits for participants, 
including becoming ``more likely to stay in school and graduate, find 
employment with good benefits, prepare their children for school and 
become productive members of the community.''
  As a supporter of this worthwhile organization and their more than 
three decades of dedication, it is an honor to mark their 35th 
anniversary and celebrate with them and the thousands of young families 
they have supported.
  Congratulations and continued success in Bucks and Montgomery 
counties to everyone at Child Home and Community.
