Cornerstone Partnership
Our goal is to establish relationships with families so that students are prepared for the journey ahead. Parenting can be very challenging – we know. Our hope is that Cornerstone can help you navigate the schools – and life, and find community resources to make it a little easier.
The foundation of our program is our staff. DeeDee, Jacey, and Cecilia provide a safe and welcoming environment for Chehalis families.
Come visit us at 2057 Southwest Salsbury Avenue (the Olympic school building)
Drop-ins are welcomed until noon each day school is in session. Contact us to make an afternoon appointment.

How We Help
Food Support - We help connect families with food resources offered by local organizations. Give us a call so we can discuss your needs and help you find resources.
Early Education Support - Cornerstone provides scholarships for local pre-schools and learning programs. We also work alongside families to support them in finding quality pre-school and childcare spots that are the right fit for their children's needs.
Home and Household Support - Many Chehalis families receive help with clothing, laundry supplies, diapers, blankets, furniture and other household needs. We connect families with local resources that offer this support. We also have some of these items available at our Cornerstone office occasionally, please reach out if you have a need that we might be able to help meet!
Mental Health Support – In addition to Cornerstone staff support, we can help connect you or your child with mental health support offered by local agencies.
Parent Education – Our FREE Cornerstone Parent Education nights are based on Love & Logic strategies and are open to all families. Dinner is included, as well as childcare for children ages 3 and older. We also offer additional family events throughout the school year!
Dual-Generation Support - We also help parents pursue career and educational growth of their own. We will review training opportunities and can offer emergency grant support for those who enroll in college or other training programs. Please call/text/email to find out all the ways we can support you on your educational journey!
We appreciate support from local businesses and organizations in the Greater Chehalis area
