Wickliffe Family Resources
The WFRC is a “one-stop shop” to support the academic, economic, physical, social, and emotional needs of our community. We strive to connect people in our community to health and medical resources, food, clothing, and toiletries, as well as job and housing opportunities. Our goal is to help advance the success of students, families, and individuals in NE Ohio through full community engagement and integration.
We are located at Door 18 of Wickliffe High School and are open Monday-Friday from 8:00am-4:30pm. Currently, you do not have to be a resident of Wickliffe, or even Lake County, to take advantage of the resources that we offer here at the WFRC. We pride ourselves on serving everyone who walks through our doors! Please feel free to pass our information on to any colleagues, families, or individuals that you currently work with!
