BUILDING STRONGER FAMILIES
The Building Stronger Families program is based on the premise that families are central to ensuring that children are healthy, safe, and prepared for school. Families thrive in the context of communities that provide them with support, services, and opportunities to connect with one another.
The activities of Building Stronger Families are sensitive to the skills of the young parents and provide customized support to each parent. Parent Circles, mentors for young parents, advocacy training, and community-based research are provided through this grant and are parent-led and parent-driven.
El Nido’s implementation of the Building Stronger Families program in Compton focuses on children ages 0-5, the formative years during which long-term development is greatly impacted. El Nido’s trained staff will provide Compton-East Compton children with the best start in life, ensuring they are healthy, safe from abuse and neglect, and ready to succeed in school and life.
