Description:
Provides parent education and participation in the preschool education of their children for low-income families. Helps children develop positive attitudes about learning while teaching them the skills they will need to succeed in school. Parents also become invested in the process, laying the groundwork for participation throughout their child's education. Parents attend classes at Family Connections with their children, from newborn to age 5. A portion of each class is devoted to parent education through lectures, discussion groups, written materials and speakers. The importance of play is also emphasized. Weekly groups provide parenting education and the support of other parents as they share common concerns. Family Connections has three classroom locations: Class schedule varies by site.
