Organizations Filed Purposes: PARTNERS WITH FAMILIES, SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITIES TO PROMOTE CHILDREN'S SUCCESS AND WELL-BEING

GRAIL FAMILY SERVICES CONTINUES TO EXPAND OUR REACH AND IMPACT WITHIN THE ALUM ROCK COMMUNITY OF EAST SAN JOSE AND BEYOND. WE EXPANDED OUR FAMILY ENGAGEMENT PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FOR TEACHERS AND HAVE TRAINED MORE THAN 400 TEACHERS IN TWO COUNTIES AS WELL AS SERVICE PROVIDERS, CHILDCARE PROVIDERS AND COUNTY STAFF. WE COMPLETED THE REDESIGN OF OUR BUILDING BLOCKS OF PARENTING APP AND WILL BE OFFICIALLY LAUNCHING IT IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SANTA CLARA COUNTY OFFICE OF EDUCATION AND FIRST 5 SANTA CLARA COUNTY ON MARCH 4, 2020. WE WERE AMONG ONLY SIX ORGANIZATIONS NATIONWIDE TO BE INVITED TO JOIN THE FAMILY MATH NETWORK, WHICH CONNECTS LEADING PRACTITIONERS AND EXPERTS TO IMPROVE FAMILY MATCH PRACTICES AND APPROACHES IN PARTNERSHP WITH COMMUNITIES.

OUR STATE FUNDED PRESCHOOL GIVES LOW-INCOME FAMILIES THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE THEIR 3-5 YEAR OLDS WITH A QUALITY PRESCHOOL EXPERIENCE AND THEREBY LAY THE FOUNDATION FOR SUCCESS IN SCHOOL AND IN LIFE. WE GREW OUR FAMILY ENGAGEMENT PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FOR CHILD CARE PROVIDERS AND PRESCHOOL, TK, KINDERGARTEN AND 1ST-3RD GRADE TEACHERS. TO ADDRESS THE EARLY EDUCATION GAP IN EAST SAN JOSE, WE ARE OPENING A SECOND STATE-FUNDED PRESCHOOL WHICH WILL SERVE AN ADDITIONAL 48 FAMILIES BY PROVIDING A STRONG START FOR THEIR YOUNG CHILDREN. WE SUCCESFULLY IMPLEMENTED A FAMILY MATCH PROGRAM IN OUR EXISTING STATE-FUNDED PRESCHOOL THAT RESULTED IN ALL STUDENTS SHOWING PROGRESS IN EARLY MATH CONCEPTS. MY FIRST MATH KIT INCLUDED MATERIALS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAT-RELATED ACTIVITIES FOR CHILDREN TO DO AT HOME WITH THEIR PARENTS.
