FAMILY TO FAMILY CONNECTION ISD 13
Mission Statement
Family to Family Connection (F2F), focusing on families with young children since 1998, has provided the Las Vegas community with needed prevention, education and supportive services. These free parent engagement services include: • Parent/child play groups • Early childhood education • Developmental classes • Parenting classes • Lactation consultation • Support groups • Kindergarten readiness
About This Cause
F2F's free quality classes provide an opportunity for parents to improve their parenting skills and to provide their children with developmental experiences during the critical early learning period- a period which impacts the rest of a child's life. At F2F, parents find information as well as support and gain confidence; young children are given experiential opportunities to improve social and pre-literacy skills. Our program requires family engagement; parents must participate alongside their child so they gain skills and confidence as their child’s first teacher. Because 80% of a child's brain growth is completed by age 3, we believe that parents' choices to develop their parenting skills today can result in an increased vocabulary, more highly developed social and emotional skills in their children as well as preparation for success in school.
