What it reported doing in 2024

Early school success: finally, our family resource center (frc) team had another impactful year, beginning with the successful implementation of bridge to kinder in partnership with arusd. This program was offered at both linda vista and san antonio elementary schools, with 65 students enrolled at each site. To further support the healthy development of these young learners, we completed 46 ages and stages questionnaires, allowing us to better track and respond to each child's growth needs. This year also saw the exciting launch of los compadres, a program dedicated to engaging fathers in the community. We are proud to currently have 7 active leaders, with programming designed to address important topics such as domestic violence, child abuse prevention, raising lgbtq+ children, and mental health. In partnership with the palo alto junior museum, our painter frc site began offering quarterly programming that introduces children and their families to different animals and learning opportunities. Additionally, we launched saturday programming at both of our frc sites, focusing on key areas such as medical enrollment, art and wellness, and health and nutrition. Overall, through these and other initiatives, our frcs have served more than 1,224 participants this year. Our parentchild+ program has been a cornerstone of these services, delivering over 8,000 home visits to families. The program currently has 30 caregivers and 33 children enrolled, with 15 children and their caregivers graduating last september. We have also created new opportunities for caregivers through the be strong families parent cafe series, which brought together 15 parents to share their stories and build a sense of community. This series was integrated with our monthly parentchild+ connections meetings, further connecting participants to the larger network of support within the frc. Our developmental support for children has also been robust, as we administered 167 ages and stages questionnaires (asq-3 and asq-se) throughout the year. These assessments were conducted at the beginning, middle, and end of the program to track developmental progress and set personalized goals for each child. As a result, we were able to make over 10 referrals for children to receive specialized services where needed, ensuring they get the support necessary for healthy development.
