Hello, I thought you would find the following article interesting. Link: http://www.plan4preschool.org/docs/single/san-francisco-strategic-plan-07-12/ Download: http://www.plan4preschool.org/documents/sf-sp-07-12.pdf Abstract: First 5 San Francisco recognizes that ensuring children’s healthy development depends upon achieving success within four, closely connected areas: Improved Child Health Enhanced Child Development Improved Family Functioning Improved Systems of Care These areas are deeply intertwined. For example, children who are healthy miss fewer days of preschool so benefit more from high quality child development programming. When parents are thriving and supported, they do a better job of promoting their children’s social and cognitive growth at home and ensuring that their needs are met in the community. And achieving the desired outcomes across these areas is more likely when agencies work together to adopt effective practices and develop high quality services.
