Parents As Teachers

In 2024, 179 guardians were taught to recognize developmental milestones and prepare their children for school success.
Parents as Teachers connects families with community support so they can thrive where they live and develop greater self-sufficiency and independence. It focuses on the earliest years of life because those years hold both the most vulnerability and the most opportunity to support parents as they create a strong foundation for the healthy development of young children
