CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments
| Our child care program is a 3 star rated program. We remain funded through United Way Read to Succeed investment and the Metro Council Stabilization Grant. Both partnerships elevate the quality of our literacy and social emotional program to a higher level. We are also approved by The Department of Human Services to maintain and operate the CACFP program which ensures that our children receive nutritional meals daily. We are optimistic that 2024-25 and all the years to follow will be more successes than challenges. |
