ELPASO is a movement creating a critical mass of Latino parents who are well informed and skilled to help their children enter kindergarten ready.
ELPASO XITO gives parents the knowledge and skills to support their children before they enter kindergarten and the opportunity to share with their community their knowledge. Since 2014, 4000 parents have been visited and informed about agencies and organizations that are in the parents community to better their life and their childrens future. Each of the last past years,ELPASO XITO has trained from 30-40 Latino mothers and fathers in Early Childhood topics, such as, Language Development, early Reading and Writing skills, Early Math and Social-Emotional Development for parents to incorporate new behaviors for the better. The information is given, parent leaders implement them at home, observe the changes in their children awareness and desire for learning, and then they share it with their neighbors. ELPASO XITO has several parents who first went to the cafecitos and now they are strong participants of ELPASO XITO and offering cafecitos to their own neighbors.
