Even Start could be the program for your family!

The Even Start Family Literacy Program provides home and center-based services for families with children under the age of eight. The program's family educators assist adults to reach their educational goals, such as a GED or high school diploma through home visits and connecting parents to adult education classes or distance learning.

  • Transportation and childcare is available to Even Start families

  • Even Start works with schools to support what is happening in the classroom and help parents to be valuable partners in their children's learning.

  • The program provides a four-week summer camp for children ages 3-7.
