Philadelphia, PA (April 25, 2024) – CORA Services, the most comprehensive Family Resource Center in Philadelphia, is proud to officially launch their new logo and the refinement of its mission and vision statements, core values, and logo that reflect CORA’s ongoing commitment to providing quality and compassionate service to children and families.
Founded in 1971, CORA was built to broadly support a child’s development in the context of home, school, and community.

We are excited to continue serving our schools and communities with excellence and compassion.”
With a history rooted in meeting the unique needs of each individual served, CORA Services remains a beacon of hope and support for those they support, guided by the values of compassion, zeal, dignity and worth, and humility.
