The libraries donated backpacks and books to our center locations. Parents were involved with committees, events, and parent meetings at each center. Our Policy Council was established by a parent at every location, and many new ideas were suggested and implemented. Parades in this area are exciting and families participate by creating floats and dressing up. Toys for Tots is a big event, (CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O)Desc

DescThe Alabama grant provided educational services to 80 children during the 2024-2025 school year. These children were Early Head Start ages birth to 3. Alabama served these children in 5 locations in Walker County: Jasper, Cordova, Dora, Curry, Townley.

We were able to form partnerships with our local school districts, Adam Bishop Center, and ARC of Walker County to provide speech, OT, and mental health services to our children and families. We partnered with The City of Lights, a recovery program for females and have been able to serve their children in our program while the mothers are learning a workforce skill. The policy council has been very involved in our program and voted to allow an expansion which added 6 more classrooms for this upcoming year for ages 3-5.

DescDuring the 2024-2025 academic school year, the AKW Grant continued to serve children. Our Early Head Start program enrolled 80 children in our 3 standalone sites and our Head Start program continued serving 134 children through our partnerships with Floresville ISD and Charlotte ISD. We wanted to make sure our families continued to feel involved in their child's education by providing monthly parent meetings followed by family engagement activities. During the family engagement activities, families are invited to come to the center and join their child for a creative activity. During this time, families can see what the children have been learning about in the classroom as well. This year AKW added a by-monthly Father Engagement classroom activity to have more father and/or father figures involved in the children's education. AKW also added the Let's Read Together take-home activities to enhance reading at home with a family member. Parents also continued to volunteer and attend Policy Council meetings via zoom. Teachers continue to send home educational activities daily; this gives parents the opportunity to spend some time with their child at home extending on what they are learning at school. This school year we had 214 parent volunteers. AKW grant continues to implement the parent curriculum called Ready Rosie. Ready Rosie delivers parenting curriculum videos via text. The City of Poteet continued to provide volunteers services each month by mowing the yard, paying for water and trash services. The City of Poteet included in their yearly donations the opportunity to house AKW's mains office, training room and storage shed while donating the rental cost, water and trash services. Our stand-alone sites continue working with the local community partnerships to provide resources and referrals to our families on as needed basis.Desc

Form 990, Part III, Line 4a Program Service DescriptionThe JVLCDG grant provided educational services to 317 children during the 2024-2025 school year. The locations included Victoria ISD, Waelder ISD, Yoakum ISD, Nixon-Smiley ISD, Victoria HS and EHS, Cuero EHS, Edna HS, and Port Lavaca EHS. During the 2024-2025 academic year, the EHS CCP grant had a total of 120 children served. The centers that were open were Victoria, Boerne, Edna, Cuero, Port Lavaca, Yoakum under this grant. Partnerships with local libraries were made. Center managers partnered with the libraries in their areas and had a literacy program established where parents could get library cards and join events. The libraries donated backpacks and books to our center locations. Parents were involved with committees, events, and parent meetings at each center. Our Policy Council was established by a parent at every location, and many new ideas were suggested and implemented. Parades in this area are exciting and families participate by creating floats and dressing up. Toys for Tots is a big event sponsored in Victoria where many of our Family Specialists helped families sign-up and participate. We have many community partners, but this year one stood out above the rest. The HEB Buddy Event took place which was a fun way to engage all of our centers with local HEB's that we partner with. Families completed activities as well as took Fall pictures with HEB Buddy. The education team set in motion more family engagement by launching Ready Rosie for parents. Through our growing partnerships with the ISD's, we have seen an increase in engagement to help prepare our children to be school ready.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4c Program Service DescriptionThe Alabama grant provided educational services to 80 children during the 2024-2025 school year. These children were Early Head Start ages birth to 3. Alabama served these children in 5 locations in Walker County: Jasper, Cordova, Dora, Curry, Townley. Partnerships with our local Capstone Clinic and Child Dentistry allowed us to provide medical and dental checkups for the children. We were able to form partnerships with our local school districts, Adam Bishop Center, and ARC of Walker County to provide speech, OT, and mental health services to our children and families. We partnered with The City of Lights, a recovery program for females and have been able to serve their children in our program while the mothers are learning a workforce skill. The policy council has been very involved in our program and voted to allow an expansion which added 6 more classrooms for this upcoming year for ages 3-5. Our family specialists provided recruiting activities each month and worked with our education coaches to provide families with information at monthly meetings to accommodate their needs. The partnerships formed have proven to be a great asset to our area.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Description of other program services(Expenses $ 4,018,368 including grants of $ 962) During the 2024-2025 academic school year, the AKW Grant continued to serve children. Our Early Head Start program enrolled 80 children in our 3 standalone sites and our Head Start program continued serving 134 children through our partnerships with Floresville ISD and Charlotte ISD. We wanted to make sure our families continued to feel involved in their child's education by providing monthly parent meetings followed by family engagement activities. During the family engagement activities, families are invited to come to the center and join their child for a creative activity. During this time, families can see what the children have been learning about in the classroom as well. This year AKW added a by-monthly Father Engagement classroom activity to have more father and/or father figures involved in the children's education. AKW also added the Let's Read Together take-home activities to enhance reading at home with a family member. Parents also continued to volunteer and attend Policy Council meetings via zoom. Teachers continue to send home educational activities daily; this gives parents the opportunity to spend some time with their child at home extending on what they are learning at school. This school year we had 214 parent volunteers. AKW grant continues to implement the parent curriculum called Ready Rosie. Ready Rosie delivers parenting curriculum videos via text. The City of Poteet continued to provide volunteers services each month by mowing the yard, paying for water and trash services. The City of Poteet included in their yearly donations the opportunity to house AKW's mains office, training room and storage shed while donating the rental cost, water and trash services. Our stand-alone sites continue working with the local community partnerships to provide resources and referrals to our families on as needed basis.
