Union Ridge Elementary

The Ridgefield Family Resource Center (RFRC) exists to meet the needs of students and families by providing food, personal care items and additional resources.  Our pantry is open during the school closure, and we have food to share!  Due to the coronavirus outbreak, we are following safety guidelines similar to what you would see in a grocery store in order to provide support to students, families, and staff.\r\n \r\n

Location\r\nWe are located in Portables C and D between the Ridgefield Administrative & Civic Center (RACC) and Union Ridge Elementary School.  Take Pioneer Street into downtown Ridgefield and park in the RACC parking lot at 510 Pioneer Street.  We are in the portable to the right of the RACC building, outside of the fencing.\r\n \r\n
