Our ParentChild+ program recently held a graduation ceremony with 70 staff, supporters, and parents from the Bronx and Brooklyn celebrating what is for many families their children's first educational accomplishment. Through our intensive home visiting over two years with a focus on helping parents to read and play with their children, youngsters ages 3-5 years are now academically prepared for the next step in their education. Participating parents gained knowledge, tools, and resources to help them as parents and community members. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/exR276NM

Our Work Readiness groups have been getting out & about in NYC this summer, including taking the Staten Island Ferry and visiting Wall Street’s iconic bull statue, bowling, and a visit to the New York Transit Museum in Brooklyn. Whether a job or a career, work can be a source of pride and purpose, as well as a way to gain greater financial independence. We work with adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities to gain the skills and experience to find employment that aligns with their interests and aspirations: https://lnkd.in/g_JFw-29
