Early learning: provides academic-year preschool for children ages 3 and 4. The preschool program includes eceap (early childhood education and assistance program), a washington state funded preschool for children from very low-income families, which is completely integrated with the general population of full-tuition participants. The preschool program itself is the only naeyc (national association for the education of young children) accredited program in our service area. In addition, we offer weekly toddler classes for kids ages 1 and 2.

Parentchild+ program: provides free in-home literacy, parenting education and school readiness services to low-income families with children. Program centers around bringing tangible items (toys, books, etc.) into the home and working with parents to teach them how to enhance their child's development in the context of the item brought to the home. The item is then left with the family permanently.
