FOR PROVIDERS
At the Early Learning Coalition of Palm Beach County, we know providers are the foundation for children’s educational success. That’s why we’re here to support you with navigating the challenges of being an Owner, Director, and Teacher.
We are here to serve providers in the following ways:
Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten (VPK)
VPK prepares children to be successful in kindergarten. One of the most important things we can do is support a child’s success in school and life. To serve the community as a VPK Provider, check here for information and resources.
School Readiness (SR)
The School Readiness program is a state and federal child care tuition assistance program that prepares children to be kindergarten-ready, coaches families toward financial self-sufficiency, and provides parents information about child development and other important topics. Find Provider requirements, guidelines and resources here.
Early Head Start (EHS)
The Coalition has received Early Head Start (EHS) grants which allows us to serve 270 children form 6 weeks old to 3 years of age in the most needed areas of the county. Service areas include the cities of Belle Glade, Pahokee, West Palm Beach, Lake Worth, Delray Beach and Riviera Beach. If you’re located in this areas and wish to become an EHS provider, learn more here.
CLASS
Through integrated support and services, the Coalition’s goal is to increase the number of quality providers accessible to children and families living and working in Palm Beach County. Click here to learn more about the assessment process, scoring, and best practices.
