Mission

Start at zero's mission is partnering with parents and caregivers to promote healthy early childhood development.

Programs

2 programs

Group connections: group connections are one of the four components of the parents as teachers program. Families will learn child development information, meet other families with similar aged children and engage in and learn more about caregiver/child interaction.

Expenses: $88K

Developmental screenings: parents and caregivers can complete a free online developmental screening for their child and receive the results of the screening from a parent educator within 5 business days. The screening is called the ages and stages questionnaires (asqs) and it evaluates 6 domains: language, gross motor (using arms and legs), fine motor (using fingers and hands), problem-solving, personal-social and social/emotional skills. Depending on the screening results, connections can be made to early intervention, healthcare, or other resources.
