The classroom program is extended into the home through home visits and home reinforcement activities. Early identification if health problems is emphasized and follow-up treatment provided. Lunch and snacks are served each day. Parents act as volunteers in classrooms, receive training in child development including working successfully with their children at home, and are encouraged to further their education and thus enhance job skills. Staff provide parents with information about available community resources and how to obtain them.
Direct assistance is given to parents who have problems and emergencies.
