Who We Are
The Children's Center, a non-profit agency, is dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of young children, one family at a time. Our mission is to nurture and educate children and their families. We provide opportunities for education, parenting support and resources to families in our communities. The Children's Center offers a variety of programs including the federally funded Early Head Start/Head Start programs which provides no cost services to qualifying families. Comprehensive services are provided to pregnant women and children from birth to age five. Whether through high-quality childcare in our classrooms, educational home visits to families with younger children, or therapeutic services for children with developmental delays or disabilities, our goal is to partner with families to foster healthy development of children, from pregnancy to preschool.
