Small Steps Nurturing Center operates two preschools for economically at-risk children living in the Fifth Ward and surrounding areas of inner-city Houston, Texas.We provide a high-quality education, social and emotional support, a nurturing Christian environment, transportation, and nutritious meals to children ages two through six living in poverty.Small Steps operates five days a week, nine months each year (plus one month of summer enrichment), at no financial cost to the families we serve. Small Steps uses proven interventions to help narrow the knowledge gap and create a community of support for our students and families. - Early intervention through early childhood education programs is a cost-effective way to invest in children and prepare them to learn the academic and life skills they need to become contributing members of society. Ninety percent of brain development occurs by age five, thus making the first five years of life a critical window for learning. The need for early intervention in these early years is especially great for children living in poverty. These children often experience high levels of stress, which affect their brains and can interfere with their ability to learn.Small Steps has implemented an approach to early childhood education called SET (Social Emotional Tools) for Life, created by Michelle M. Forrester, PhD, which emphasizes a relationship- and language-based format to address the social and emotional needs of children. Small Steps employs four SET for Life team members: the Director of Student and Family Support and two SET Therapists-all with graduate-level degrees in fields related to mental health (requiring advanced licensure)-and a SET Interventionist. Additionally, Small Steps will partner with outside providers to offer student and/or family support, including mental health services, occupational therapy, speech therapy, physical therapy, early childhood intervention, and other community resources.Small Steps provides a Read more ↓
