to develop the childhood learning years, maintaining good diet, good health and providing for the basic necessities of the
children and family, a program designed to work with the children in development of responsibilities and a sense of belonging
to a group with a common goal.
The bears are
adopted by the child allowing them to pick their type and style of bear, each bear is registered by serial number with
the name and location of the child. The child and a adult family member or guardian will sign a contract stating he or
she will take care of the bear and if the bear should be injured over time he or she will contact the agent in that area to
have the bear repaired. The terms of the contract will be explained to the child and the adult family member or guardian.
The agent in the area checks on the condition of the child once a month , and will report
to the board as to the results of his or her checks on all the bears in that area. Any family or child that disposes of their
