Improve quality of life through early childhood education, health and social services
With a 122-year social services legacy, over 3 decades of providing early childhood learning direct services to children and families in over 21 Chicago communities, Henry Booth House has provided holistic, integrated child development and family services via a seamless Birth to Five continuum. We are dedicated to our mission in improving the quality of life for families in culturally and economically diverse Chicago communities by providing comprehensive and integrated early childhood learning, family health and social services. With an army of 75+ early childhood professionals, our overarching goal is to intervene with the highest quality programs and services at the earliest time possible, when quality programs and services have the greatest impact in optimizing the quality of life for a child and the contributions that child will make through adulthood to the greater society.
In that vein, we are a recognized leader in providing high quality early childhood development programs, including Head Start, Early Head Start, Pre-School for All, Prevention Initiative, Healthy Families of Illinois, MIECHV, Doula and Women, Infants and Children. These programs provide comprehensive early learning supports for the children and families we serve from conception, to the cradle, to the classroom, ultimately preparing our children and families for kindergarten readiness. Each year, we serve over 4,000 of our most at-risk, youngest Chicagoans in meeting and exceeding their developmental milestones. Moreover, we recognize the success of our children is inextricably linked to the success of their families. Therefore, we anchor all our services in a family centered focus, working side by side, helping families in identifying and securing basic needs, employment, healthcare and all aspirational goals aligned with their personal and professional growth. All in all, at Henry Booth House, we get children ready to learn and their families ready for life, lifelong self-sufficiency and success.
