Leverett — Healey-Driscoll政府在今天宣布,它将向本州的 81 个组织提供金额达 $1550 万的协调家庭和社区参与 (CFCE) 相关拨款,这些组织为有幼儿的家庭提供儿童发展相关的服务和资源。早期教育和护理专员Amy Kershaw和农村事务主任Anne Gobi参观了Leverett图书馆,宣布了获得拨款名单,并直接听取了关于各家庭在农村所遇到的有关儿童保育的困难和在农村相关机遇的意见,并亲眼目睹了这些拨款对提高儿童发展和家庭参与相关体验所带来的影响。
州长Maura Healey说:“协调家庭和社区参与拨款(Coordinated Family and Community Engagement Grant)是帮助扩大获得高质量的让家庭负担得起的儿童保育服务且帮助解决青年心理健康危机以及为紧急避难所的家庭提供教育和社区机会的重要工具。“将州政府资金投资于这样的计划将有助于使我们的州更加使家庭负担得起以及让人感觉公平,且可以让家庭与儿童发展计划和参与活动相关联以便为我们幼儿及其家庭的福祉和需求提供支持。
副州长Kim Driscoll说:“这些拨款通过协调家庭和社区参与服务,让幼儿及其家庭的发展、社会和情感需求得到满足,并为其获得早期教育和护理提供支持。“这笔资金将用于当地学区和非营利组织,对于我们致力于支持从Pittsfield到Provincetown的城镇以满足居民的需求,并使麻萨诸塞州成为一个更实惠和公平的生活、学习、工作和娱乐场所这一点进行重点强调。
协调家庭和社区参与拨款的许多款项获得者组织是家庭的第一个接触点,该接触点通过公立学校、中心计划、Head Start和其他家庭托儿服务,将他们与当地的早期教育和校外时间服务项目计划联系起来 。这些组织对于可以促进家长教育和家庭参与,解决早期识字和儿童发展问题,并改善出生至六岁儿童的早期教育和护理环境、家庭和学校之间的过渡的健保活动和资源进行协调。
此外,这些项目计划为包括像 Leverett 这样的农村社区的麻萨诸塞州城镇家庭提供支持,并通过 CFCE 理事会成员资格和社区合作加强社区的能力以吸引和支持家庭。麻萨诸塞州 351 个城镇中有一半以上是农村社区,这些较小社区的 CFCE 网络可以帮助家庭在寻求早期教育和儿童保育时克服农村社区的独特障碍和机会。通过有意调整目标,方法和政策,CFCE计划促进了为幼儿及其家庭服务的机构之间的合作,无论他们在Bay State的哪个地方.
教育部长Patrick Tutwiler说:“这些拨款为了整个家庭的需求提供了支持,这样的支持可以确保我们最小的学生能够获得支持他们的福祉,最佳发展和入学准备的服务,同时也加强了家庭和父母作为孩子第一任老师的能力。 “这笔州府资金不仅将为我们的孩子提供支持,而且还是对当地社区的投资,使我们最年轻的学习者为上学和终身成功做好准备。
本月早些时候,州长Healey宣布麻萨诸塞州进入紧急状态,因为抵达本州需要获得庇护和相关服务的家庭数量迅速增加,其中包括许多有小孩的家庭。CFCE网络一直是提供紧急补助的选定社区的重要资源,其方式是为避难所内的父母和儿童建立游戏小组。这包括为家庭带来玩具、书籍和其他学习活动,让他们用高质量和适合发展的材料来让他们的孩子有所娱乐,同时与新社区的其他成员建立联系。Healey-Driscoll政府正在寻求扩大这项工作,并将游戏小组服务扩展到更多接受紧急补助的家庭,并增加获得CFCE组织可能能够为家庭提供的案例管理和转介服务的机会。
“我们的CFCE合作伙伴与他们的社区紧密相连,为本州各地的幼儿及其家庭提供重要且回应迅速及时的服务。最近,他们挺身而出,为越来越多的家庭抵达麻萨诸塞州提供了关键支持。此计划项目正在尽其所能,包括建立游戏小组和儿童友好空间,以及提供案例管理和转介以支持家庭的健康和福祉,”早期教育和护理部专员Amy Kershaw如是说。“我们很高兴提供 1550 万美元的拨款,以继续提供这些关键服务以及对我们的合作伙伴以同理心和优雅的方式完成的工作所作的表彰。”
