Strategic Plan & Needs Assessment
The needs assessment presents the current status of what families and children in our community need for success, and the strategic plan outlines how our collaborative intends to fulfill those needs.
Testimonial
“Our daughter was 4 years old when we were able to enroll her in Giraffe Laugh Preschool in Garden City. In spite of starting her in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, after just 5 months she was thriving. She learned so much through this program and her teachers have done a wonderful job keeping the classroom safe and providing an enriching learning environment for our child. We are so grateful for the opportunity to have our daughter a part of the class and truly feel like we’re a part of a big, happy family! While she misses her teachers, she will be ready for Kindergarten and prepared for new challenges.”
- Kim M., Garden City Mother
Building a Collaborative
Idaho AEYC created an in-depth toolkit that guides communities and individuals through the process of creating local early learning collaboratives and developing quality early learning opportunities. The toolkit is designed to utilize the unique dynamics of each community. This is about local solutions, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
With support from Idaho AEYC, including targeted technical assistance and funding through grant opportunities, this important work can be accomplished in your own community. Learn more about the toolkit and start your collaborative today!
