The
Partnership offers programs that target Family Support issues in our
county. The following activities are specifically formulated to
enhance the quality of family life in our community:
Parents As Teachers: This program increases
parenting skills and helps to improve knowledge of the developmental needs
of young children for school readiness. PAT Educators work one on
one with Parents and Children to identify possible delays and disabilities through home visits,
and also work to provide
educational learning experiences for the family.
Preschool Transportation:
This activity provides transportation to Even Start classes for
families who live outside of the regular school attendance district
and would not otherwise be able to get to attend the program.
Language
Diversity in Preschoolers: Richmond County Schools provides
early developmental educational experiences and activities for
"language diverse" preschoolers. The focus is on
language development and improved social skills for Spanish-speaking and other
bilingual students.
