Family Literacy Program:

 I Love to Read (Quiero Leer)

This comprehensive program for families includes the following components:

            

 

 

Early Childhood Education (ECE) Center 

 

    This program is divided into two sessions (one in the a.m. and one in the afternoon), which serve a total of 69 children, birth to 5 years.  These children are provided age-appropriate educational services each day, learning basic skills necessary for school-readiness by the age of six.

 


 

FamilyRead

Modeled after the nationally acclaimed Mother-read program, Family-Read facilitators meet weekly with a total of 20 parents, for more than 2 hours, to develop family literacy skills among parents of children between the ages of 2 and 4.

 

 


 

 

Parenting Education

Through a partnership with North Valley Occupational Center, parents participate in a parenting education course each week.

 

 


   

English as a Second Language Training

While their young children are in the ECE Center, 38 adult learners are next door participating in rigorous ESL education provided by an LA Unified School District Adult Education teacher.  In the evening, an additional group (many of whom are fathers of children in the ECE Center) take part in an ESL class that averages 50 participants a day.

 


 

Computer Literacy Classes

Through a partnership with the San Fernando Adult Literacy Council, adult and teen learners receive structured, open-ended, and computer-based instruction on basic applications.
