OUR MISSION: The mission of RCPC is to create a culture that values parenting and keeping children safe through education, respect, advocacy, and strengthening families.

WHO WE ARE: The Resource Center Parents and Children (RCPC) has grown in size, strength, and commitment since 1973. It was started by a small group of concerned Fairbanks citizens who met as the Fairbanks Child Protection Task Force (FCPTF) to discuss the problems of child abuse and neglect in the Fairbanks community.

Over the years our programs and services have varied but all have focused on the same mission. The prevention of child abuse and neglect begins with strengthening the family structure, helping caregivers with parenting skills, and providing a safe place for caregivers to share and cope with parenting issues. The Resource Center for Parents and Children has been successful due to quality staff, programs, countless volunteers, and social service agency partners.

To all that have shared in our agency’s history, we give you our deepest thanks.

Dolly Parton's Imagination Library

In 1995, Dolly Parton launched an exciting new effort, Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, to benefit the children of her home county in East Tennessee, USA. Dolly's vision was to foster a love of reading among her county’s preschool children and their families by providing them with the gift of a specially selected book each month. By mailing high quality, age-appropriate books directly to their homes, she wanted children to be excited about books and to feel the magic that books can create. Moreover, she could insure that every child would have books, regardless of their family’s income. Visit the Imagination Library
