Young Children and Families

MISSION

LEARN’s Young Children and Families initiate, support and provide services for families and young children. Our goals are to strengthen a family’s capacity for learning and growth opportunities. We will meet this goal by working with families and caregivers as well as with education, health, and social service agencies.
