History

What is now known as Howe Community Resource Center started out in 1996 as a small parent resource room at Howe School. Realizing that the space was limited and having bigger visions, stakeholders began looking for a permanent building.
2000
In 2000, 526 S. Monroe Ave (a former AAA) was purchased and remodeled through the hard work and generosity of many in the community.
