Tuition assistance gives families access to high quality childcare as soon as they need it.

Why? We know that the earlier a child is in quality care, the better the outcomes, improving school attendance, graduation rates, college attendance and potential earnings as an adult.

Through our enrichment programs, children participate in a range of activities such as sports, music, dance, yoga, gardening and chess.

Why? Such a range of activities develop new connections in the brain, support physical and mental well being, and help children discover their passions, building confidence and self-esteem.

Our funding helps preschools work with families to identify and address developmental delays early and then provide speech, occupational, or behavioral health services as needed.

Why? Studies show that addressing developmental delays and challenges early can change the trajectory of a child’s educational journey giving them the support they need to reach their full potential in kindergarten and beyond.

Through professional development, ECE teachers have the opportunity to continue their learning and understand best practices for working with young children.

Why? Studies have shown a direct correlation between the quality of the teachers a child has in their early years and their success, happiness and productivity as an adult.

Through workshops led by child development professionals, we help parents and caregivers understand best practices for raising a thoughtful, confident and productive child and help build a support network for families.

Why? An informed, supported parent who feels heard and understood is more likely to be able to provide the support and optimal environment for a child to thrive.

Our community programs bring families together to share experiences, make connections and build a support network.

Why? Because a strong community has shared goals, values and responsibilities which raise the quality of a child’s experience at school and at home.
