Programs
Our funding comes from state, federal, and corporate grants as well as from your donations. We are very careful neither to duplicate nor supplant existing services but rather to cover some of the gaps which currently exist as we build on the strengths of our communities, our families and our children.
The NC Pre-K program is an initiative to provide high quality pre-kindergarten educational programs for at-risk four year olds in North Carolina to prepare them for success in school. The risk factors, determined by the state, that will be used as criteria for participation in the program are: family income, child's health status, developmental delays or disabilities, parent education levels, parent employment status, housing stability, English proficiency, and minority status. Priority for the program will be given to children who are not currently served in a childcare program.
We publish a Resource Guide for each county and the Qualla Boundary. The Guide includes the basic resources for children and families within each county. Click on 'Resource Guide' above, then click on your county to access your Guide. The Qualla Boundary Guide is under Swain County.
