The books will help disadvantaged families in North County, nonprofit leaders said.

The Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center has also launched a variety of free, online programs for the public during the stay-at-home order. The virtual programming includes arts and cultural productions, fitness workouts, family tips and resources, as well as volunteer and giveback opportunities.
