A crisis nursery is in the works for the city of Great Falls.
“We’re still very much in our infancy stages,” said Jo-Viviane Jones of the Cascade City-County Health Department.
The nursery will be named “Toby’s House” after October Perez, a 2-year-old who died after suffering from child abuse.
“First of all, we appreciate they are doing this. It’s a great honor,” said April Hall, October’s paternal grandmother.
Kristy Perez, October’s mother, agrees.
“I look forward to working with both the Dandelion Foundation and the Early Childhood Coalition to help educate the community and prevent these tragedies from happening in our community,” said Perez.
