Modeled after the Harlem Childrens Zone, EDCI aims to reach this goal by creating a pipeline of high-quality services that starts with children at birth and continues through elementary, middle, and high school. EDCIs vision is for all children in the EDCI Zone to graduate from high school, ready for college or career. true false 1618915 125463 3847 Early Childhood & Elementary Programs: EDCI offers a variety of services for families with children ages 0-5, including a low-cost, half-day, bilingual preschool (EDCI LEAP Academy); EDCI Early Childhood Parent Advocates; literacy interventions (Story Hour); childcare subsidies; kindergarten readiness programs; and home visiting programs. In 2016, 91% of graduating Academy preschoolers were assessed as kindergarten ready, and 94% of children working with an Early Childhood Parent Advocate demonstrated developmentally appropriate communication, motor, and social interaction skills. A survey of kindergarten teachers at Y.E. Smith Elementary found that children with an Early Childhood Parent Advocate had better reading skills when leaving kindergarten than children without an Advocate. EDCI Elementary School Parent Advocates facilitate the parent-teacher-school connection for families, with a strong focus on empowering parents to become effective advocates for their childrens educational success. In Fiscal Year 2017, three EDCI Parent Advocates worked alongside families to connect them to community resources, provide behavioral and educational supports, and create positive home environments. In addition, we scaled the EDCI Leap Academy preschool to include an afternoon class of 10 additional students. In a 2016 survey conducted by EDCI, 92% of parents with an Elementary School Parent Advocate reported telling a friend or neighbor about EDCI's programs and services. 280382 975 1344 Community and summer programs: EDCIs community and summer programs include a Parent and Community Advisory Council (PCAC), EDCI Summer Lunch, English as a Second Language classes, bike and book giveaways, the Youth Leadership Council (YLC) and summer camps. EDCI also offers year-round out-of-school learning programs to students in grades K-8 in partnership with various education providers throughout the Triangle. In 2017, EDCI provided summer camp scholarships to more than 300 youth and served over 500 children and adults at EDCI Summer Lunch. Students attending any of the three EDCI summer camps made learning gains in literacy. More than 60 students participated in YLC, a health and youth leadership program. YLC engaged more than 300 community members in health focused programs including mobile markets and taste testings. 32812 75 The Middle School Advocate program is designed to help middle school students develop critical academic and social skills necessary for school success. The Youth Advocate facilitates an afterschool club, provides in-school support to students, and connects youth and families to programs within the EDCI pipeline.
