EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION PROGRAMS-FOR OVER THREE DECADES, SHELTERING ARMS HAS PROVIDED HIGH QUALITY EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION (ECE) SERVICES THROUGH BOTH HOME- AND CENTER-BASED OPTIONS. CURRENTLY WE RUN SEVEN CENTER BASED PROGRAMS SERVING ABOUT 600 CHILDREN ANNUALLY. INFANTS AND TODDLERS UP TO 4 YEARS OF AGE RECEIVE HOME- OR CENTER-BASED CARE. IN HOME-BASED CARE, HOME VISITORS WORK WITH CHILDREN AND THEIR PARENTS, WHO ALSO ATTEND WEEKLY SOCIALIZATION GROUPS WITH OTHER SAME-AGE CHILDREN. PARENTS ARE OFFERED VARIOUS EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS, INCLUDING PRENATAL AND POSTNATAL CARE, NUTRITION, AND COMPREHENSIVE FAMILY SUPPORT SERVICES. OUR DEDICATED EDUCATORS GUIDE CHILDREN THROUGH HANDS-ON LEARNING ACTIVITIES AND A CONSTANTLY GROWING SET OF INNOVATIONS, SUCH AS MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT AND EXPOSURE TO THE ARTS. OUR MODEL IS INFORMED BY THE NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED CREATIVE CURRICULUM, WHICH ENSURES THAT CHILDREN GAIN THE EARLY LITERACY, MATH, AND COGNITIVE SKILLS THEY WILL NEED TO SUCCEED IN KINDERGARTEN AND BEYOND.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2020 – Jun 30, 2021Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$14.1MFoster Care and Support Services

ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT, COLLEGE PREPARATION, AND JOB READINESS SKILLS ARE EMPHASIZED FOR ALL YOUTH, WHILE LOCAL WORKSHOPS BROADEN RESIDENTS' PERSPECTIVES AND LIFE COPING SKILLS.
