Save the Children

Save the Children provides support for
children in rural America. They have
been part of Morgan County for 16
years. There is a variety of programming
available to help serve and support local
youth and families.
Early Steps To School Success
Early Steps provides education services to
children from birth to age five, support to
parents and other caregivers and ongoing
training to community educators. The
program is designed to assist children in
language, social and emotional development;
to equip parents with the skills and
knowledge to successfully support their
children’s growth; and to develop strong
home-school connections.

Kindergarten Readiness
Kindergarten Readiness is an extension of
the Early Steps programming. It targets
children aged 3-5 who are not enrolled in
a preschool program. Groups meet 3-4
times per month in each community in
our county. Caregivers and children
receive access to learning activities that
help ready children for classroom
learning.

Summer Programming
Programs are designed to support children
and their school communities to increase the
number of children proficient in reading and
math by 3rd grade. Through in-school, afterschool and summer offerings, children
have the opportunity to participate in
additional activities designed to accelerate
learning.
