Knowledge

Life is learning & leading
Parents and caregivers need knowledge of parenting and child development. This includes understanding parenting strategies to support the physical, cognitive, linguistic, social, and emotional development of children.

Relationships

Everyone needs friends & family
Everyone needs social connections with friends, family, and neighbors. These are positive relationships that provide emotional, informational and spiritual support, as well as a helping hand when needed.

Economic Mobility

Individuals have resources & opportunities
Everyone should be financially stable, be able to meet basic needs, and have access to supports to build career pathways.

Community

Strong Relationships among neighbors
