Program areas at A Stepping Stone Foundation
Our flagship program, leaf (literacy elevates Arizona families) provided early childhood education and whole family literacy to disadvantged children and their parents, whose absence of english literacy put their children at risk of school failure and reduced life choices. While children attended 64 or more hours per month of tuition-free literacy-based preschool classes, parents spent 32 hours or more per month engaged in hands-on experiences with their children in the classroom, and adult literacy & english classes. We served 20 families (40 unique individuals)in alhambra elementary & issac elementary school districts. Due to covid restrictions we were not allowed to do childcare or in home visits.
Work-training program: high school graduates who were former pre- schoolers are encouraged to apply for one of two annual paid administrative internships. Two successful candidates are selected each year to work in the administrative office and are trained and mentored in providing front-office and computor support to the executive director, assf's programs and special events. No interns were employed this fiscal year.
Actively partnered with local high schools to identify and reconnect with former preschool students in order to provide college scholarships (billie gannaway memorial, william o. smith memorial, and ivey Stepping higher) for former preschool students. We awarded 27 scholarships to students for A total of $43,600.
