Crookston Family Resource Center is a place for area families to connect with different services and assistance as well as other parents for support.

Our Family Resource Centers are here to provide information on community resources, referrals to services, or assistance with the completion of applications and other paperwork. All services provided by Polk County are free to the public.

In partnership with the Crookston Library, Polk County FRC is providing several activities and events for families to bring their children, including the Summer Library Experience, Storytime, and STEMsational.

Along with the Crookston Library location, we supplement our hours at our new location in Washington School.

Some of our core services include Economic Assistance, Child Support, and Career Force. Please stop by and let us assist you.
