Family Spotlight: Celebrating Our Community

A Joyous Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony
February 27, 2024

In early 2024, we expanded into Daly City in response to clearly identified challenges facing families in the community. These included a lack of affordable, local early learning programming, limited opportunities and support for caregivers to engage in their children’s development and education, and insufficient resources to strengthen positive parent-child relationships.

​

Through our partnership with the Jefferson Elementary School District, we established a Family Connections Resource Hub designed to address these critical gaps. The Hub provides access to high-quality early learning programming and comprehensive wraparound family support services, increasing opportunities and connections for Daly City families.
