Child Inc.

We’re proud to announce a new partnership between Child Inc Head Start and Jeremiah Program Austin, bringing two new Early Head Start classrooms to the Jeremiah Program community.

This partnership embraces a two-generation approach, supporting children and parents together. While young children receive quality early childhood education and comprehensive support through Early Head Start, their parents have access to the resources, education, and support they need to pursue their own goals and build a stronger future for their families.

Together, we’re creating a place where families can learn, grow, and thrive—because when parents and children have the opportunity to succeed together, the whole family benefits.

We’re excited for what this partnership means for Austin families and for the possibilities ahead. 🌱

Heroes in the Making: Today We Train, Tomorrow We Transform

We saved one of the most important lessons for last: Making Connections.

Meaningful connections are at the heart of what we do. Today, our team focused on building strong, trusting relationships with children and families—because when people feel seen, heard, valued, and supported, meaningful learning and growth can happen.

From the classroom to family partnerships, every interaction is an opportunity to create connection, build trust, and strengthen the village surrounding each child.

As we close out In-Service 2026, we leave with new knowledge, renewed energy, and a shared commitment to making every connection count.

Today We Train. Tomorrow We Transform.
💫 And every day, we connect.
