The preschool program is NAEYC accredited and provides developmentally appropriate and enriching care and education for 150 preschoolers, 75 three year olds and 75 four year olds. Our early childhood program is in contract with Newark Public Schools (NPS) and Administration for Children and Families (ACF). The program employs a health and nutrition coordinator and a family and community engagement manager who provide comprehensive services to children and families.
Early Head Start serves 4 families who are pregnant, 12 families who have children up to 3 years of age at home, and 56 children 0-3 years at the center. Both in the home-based and center-based components, the staff helps parents with the changes and needs of their family that come along with having a small child, and the parent learns ways to help their child meet all milestones, including helping the family ensure the child is healthy, developmentally on target, and ready for the world. School readiness, is a major component of the Early Head Start program.
