The Homeless Family Support Program contributes to the City of Seattle’s goal to improve academic achievement and school readiness by helping homeless children and children at risk of homelessness to develop age-appropriate motor, cognitive and social skills.
Services for homeless children ages one to five years are provided by Family Services’ Specialized Homeless Child Care at Wellspring Early Learning Center, a licensed child care facility that provides specialized services for homeless children (living in emergency shelters or transitional housing). The goal is to prepare children for school by helping them develop their motor, cognitive and social skills.
