A vision of every child, thriving physically,
emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually inclusive
of all social and economic status, culture, life experience,
and special needs is the foundation on which FMEF's
School Readiness program is built. The purpose of School
Readiness is to ensure that children and families living
in the FMEF service area will have the necessary health,
developmental and social underpinnings to assist their
success in life.
Research has shown that the emotional,
physical, and intellectual environment that a child
is exposed to prior to 5-years-old has a profound impact
on how she/he develops. FMEF strives to deliver diverse,
coordinated, and integrated programs and services to
families of children ages 0-5, with the goal of equipping
the child with necessary resources to enhance her/his
chances at academic and social success.
