Are you a parent/guardian or someone who provides care for a child between the ages of birth-5 years old? If so, you will definitely want to take advantage of this research based curriculum used by our Head Start agency called "Active Parenting the First Five Years". We all have questions and concerns about how to best care for and love the children in our lives. This curriculum offers wonderful insight on topics that many of us may be unsure about such as:
*ages and stages of development
*preparing children for school success
*appropriate and effective discipline
and much, much more in an easy to understand format!
Information can be accessed in your home language and can be provided in different formats such as in-person trainings, videos, and/or reading materials.
If you are interested in accessing this resource please contact the the center at 537-0263 or comment below and someone will contact you to help you get you the resources you are looking for :)

The links below were provided to us by the Migrant Education program. The mission of the program is to help migrant students and youth meet high academic challenges by overcoming the obstacles created by frequent moves, educational disruption, cultural and language differences, and health-related problems.
One of the program goals was to create a map of resources in the community (Mitchell County) that our families can access and find the assistance they need. This is a great resource for any family needing assistance/information so feel free to copy and paste it into your browser to save for future reference :)
