EXTENDING HELP — A mother shops the Aim Women’s Center Baby Boutique in search of new baby clothing for her infant son.
STEUBENVILLE — One Aim Women’s Center mother often found herself needing more diapers, wipes, clothing and baby items than her monthly allotment from the center could provide. Aim staff encouraged her to come to class, where she could learn, earn points and use those points to shop for additional items in the Baby Boutique.

Even when she made every effort to attend, she often could not make it to class or had to leave early because of the demands of caring for so many little ones.
Now, through Aim’s new online class option, that same mother has already completed five lessons from her phone and is asking for more.
For Aim Women’s Center in Steubenville, that is exactly why the technology matters. It does not replace the value of in-person classes and relationships.
