About Family Connections Family Connections is a parent participation preschool targeting low income families living in East Palo Alto, California. Our mission is to help parents become involved in their children's education, and to prevent violence in families through parent education.
Parents bring their children, ages newborn to five, to classes three mornings a week.
Classes prepare children for success in school through a focus on literacy, health, social development, parent education, and more. A Parent-Child Center with support from the Sequoia Adult School. Initially the school was located in an apartment in East Palo Alto. In an effort to lift barriers between poverty and education the school charges no tuition. An Evening with Children's Authors in October, and a rummage sale in April.
