We serve as an Independent Learning Center...

We serve as the Preschoolers' Door to Learning...
By enhancing preschool programs for children, parents and other caregivers
By strengthening preschool collections of books, audiovisual materials,
educational toys and story kits
By further developing outreach to children at risk.
