Introducing
The Childcare Network of Evanston
As a leader in the Evanston early childhood community and an Evanston Cradle to Career partner, CNE has played a major role in the development and implementation of a variety of programs all focused on ensuring that all children in our community have a Strong Start to Kindergarten.
Home Visiting Program at CNE
​
YTC has been asked to help participants in CNE’s Home Visiting Program which is a Head Start/Early Head Start program that serves families with young children ages birth to five through weekly home visits and twice-monthly group socializations. Each eligible family is paired with one of CNE’s Parent Educators/Home Visitors, who use research-based curricula (Parents As Teachers and My Teaching Strategies) to support parents in becoming their child’s first teachers.
How YTC is Helping
Some families in the home visiting programs have struggled to have consistent access to the internet. So YTC is making sure that these identified clients receive our support with either Laptops or desktops so they can work from home, and have better access to the digital community.
