Early Childhood Services
Prenatal-3rd Grade Services (P-3)
The P-3 Schools Project aligns early learning and grades Kindergarten through 3rd Grade by connecting families to school before they enter kindergarten and fostering parent leadership involvement through early grades. P-3 Coordinators support families feel connected, comfortable, and confident as members of their school community by providing play and learn groups, home visits, and parent groups.
Early Kindergarten Transition (EKT)
This is a school‐based summer program to increase parental involvement in their child’s learning, children’s attendance in kindergarten, and children’s success in school. The program is based around two core components: 1) Class time for children in kindergarten classrooms that are led by a kindergarten teacher, and 2) Family engagement activities that include a facilitated Parent/Caregiver Group and other activities intended to promote positive family-school relationships.
We currently offer
P-3/EKT services at the following schools

Youth Advocacy & Mentorship
Enlace is a youth mentoring program with a focus on promoting discussions based on culture, identity, social structures, and students’ roles in society, encouraging participants to explore and embrace their cultural heritage and engage in their communities.
We offer afterschool groups to support students, build core skills and master academic concepts. Our program incorporates social and cultural activities that are designed to bring students together with their peers and foster a sense of cultural pride within the school environment.
Education Reengagement
These services provide support to young adults ages 14-21, who have left high school or are at risk of leaving before earning their high school diploma or General Education Development (GED) certificate to reengage in their education and explore their interests and opportunities.
