OUR VISION:
Success in the Early
Years:
Building Blocks
for the Future

           
  The projects undertaken by Success
By 6 Coalition of Douglas County
represent the culmination of years
of community-wide collaboration to
increase resources and access to
resources for parents of young
children. We work together in four
activity areas.

1. First, we increase the community's
awareness of the importance of early
childhood through literacy and social
marketing campaigns.
2. Second, we provide in home family
support and mental health services to
families with young children.
3. Third, we increase the availability
and quality of early learning opportu-
nities for infants and toddlers,
including childcare for families with
children who have special needs.
4. Finally, we have recently begun
collaborating with employers, the
Chamber of Commerce, The Lawrence
Workforce Center and Douglas County
Senior Services to improve access to
family resources with the goal of
increasing workplace productivity,
employee retention and reduce
absenteeism.
