The Alphabet Alley Pre-K program has been in place for many years. The philosophy of the program gives homeless preschool children and their families the opportunity to participate in a positive learning experience, free from outside stress, where they are able to find success through encouragement, interaction, commitment, and support. The program offers a hands-on, interactive, and integrated curriculum where young children are able to learn best through play. Children have the time and opportunity to learn and have fun in a safe and nurturing environment.
Community involvement is an integral part of the program. Community learning and volunteers offer an important and exciting educational experience for the children.
