The nonprofit hub houses the following public service resources:

We want to contribute to the success of our Hispanic community and in the preservation of our culture and language. We help remove barriers to access education, legal services, and wellness so families can thrive. www.keepdreamsalive.org

• Early Achievers: Opportunity Council/Child Care Aware NW is dedicated to ensuring that every child has access to high-quality early care and education.  We do this by partnering with childcare providers through culturally responsive coaching relationships and professional development and by supporting families find a program that meets their needs.

“This second location will make it easier for families downtown and in south Marysville to access much-needed community resources,” Mayor Jon Nehring. “I appreciate the important work that LINC NW and its partners do, and their mission to serving the entire greater Marysville community.” 

Both LINC NW locations are open Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., and other times by appointment.
