FENWC works with various agencies to identify the needs of families, and determines eligibility for funding sources. Programs are individualized so that they are responsive to the needs of each family. The following services are available to families and children through FENWC. Education Services. Individual Development/Education Plans are implemented to stimulate social, emotional, motor and intellectual learning experiences, self-reliance, self-esteem and self confidence are encouraged, thus a solid ground work is established for future educational success. Health Services. The Health Component works in collaboration with various agencies and private providers to provide a broad range of medical, dental and mental health activities. Special needs children are identified, and services are provided for them. Health, nutrition and mental health education is provided for parents to promote sound physical and mental child development. Family Services/Parent Involvement Services. FENWC considers parents an integral part of the total staff. Parent participation is encouraged in the decision-making process of their children's education, as well as decisions concerning the over-all operation of the program. We support parents in their role, and jointly develop goals for their children. Family Services works directly with various social agencies to obtain needed assistance for families, and provide them with social services, educational and employment training, to enable them to improve the quality and condition of their lives. The Family Educational Network of Weld County is committed to providing at-risk children and families with a developmentally appropriate, comprehensive program which will promote self-esteem, foster social-competence, develop independence, and enable children and families to experience future lifetime successes. The program objectives are: 1) To improve the child's health and physical abilities, including taking appropriate steps to correct present physical and mental problems and to enhance every child's access to an adequate diet. To improve the family's attitude toward future health care and physical abilities. 2) To encourage self-confidence, spontaneity, curiosity, and self- discipline which will assist in the development of the child's social and emotional health. 940RSS 3) To enhance the child's mental processes and skills with particular attention to conceptual and communications skills. 4) To establish patterns and expectations of success for the child, which will create a climate of confidence for present and future learning efforts and overall development. 5) To increase the child's and the family's ability to relate to each other and to others. 6) To enhance the sense of dignity and self-worth within the child and his family. FENWC's funding comes primarily from Federal Grants, Administered by the Department of Health and Human Services/Administration of Children and Families/Head Start Bureau. Other funding sources come from the State of Colorado, passed through local school districts, and from families that are willing to pay for services. Children may qualify through the following funding sources; The Head Start and Migrant Head Start Programs, Colorado Pre-school Program, School Districts' Special Needs Funds, and families paying for services. FENWC currently has eleven sites located throughout Weld County. I. OBJECTIVE AND NEED FOR ASSISTANCE No additional information required. II. RESULTS OR BENEFITS EXPECTED There are no proposed changes to the program objectives established in the refunding grant, submitted September, 1994; however, there has been the addition of one classroom in Weld School District RE-1 due to an increase in the funding of the Colorado Preschool Program. The classroom has been added in the town of Platteville, and is an a.m. session located in the kindergarten classroom. No additional Head Start slots have been added; however, placement for the district Head Start children has been redistributed to meet FENWC's philosophy of the "Neighborhood School Concept". Progress made in meeting program objectives. The following is a report on the progress made in meeting The Family Educational Network of Weld County goals, as established within the strategic plan. Goal #1 - To have a facility designed to accommodate child care, parenting classes and activities, socialization meeting areas and offices. The Division of Human Services submitted a proposal to the Community Development Block Grant for additional space. The proposal was rejected. We are pursuing alternative funding sources. 94089S Goal #2 - We will have a Parent Involvement Specialist on staff. We have been approved for this position through the Region VIII, Head Start Bureau, Quality Improvement funds. The job description has been developed and we hope to have this position filled by the end of October, 1994. Goal #3 - To ensure that immunizations are available to children and that all children are fully inmmized upon enrollment. The Health Specialist is immunizing children based upon identified needs, receiving permission from the parent and scheduling an appointment. Goal #4 - Support staff and parents will have training in disabilities. Currently a staff and parent survey is being developed to determine where the areas of need and interest lie. Once the results of the survey are tallied, classes will be commence. Goal #5 - Provide a Developmentally Appropriate Environment in the classrooms. A complete inventory of classroom materials and supplies has been taken. We have ordered supplies and materials to assure that all classroom environments are developmentally appropriate for all children. Goal #6 - To provide an inclusive program for children with disabilities with developmentally appropriate classrooms, transitioning activities and parent & staff support. Enrollment flyers and posters, news releases and public announcements are more specific in the inclusion of information specific to children with disabilities. Agency coordination has been enhanced through increased coordination with Local Education Agencies. Goal #7 - Provide a substitute pool for classrooms. Money has been budgeted for payment of substitutes. A sign-up sheet for parents interested in substituting will be circulated in October. An intergenerational program is in development. Training for volunteers and substitutes will occur in November. 940R9s Goal #8 - All classes will be supported in order to enhance child and family transition into the public school system. All Service Coordinators are located on the elementary school campuses in order to promote collaboration between FENWC and the local elementary school. There is participation of FENWC students in appropriate elementary school activities. Students eat meals in the school cafeteria and have access to elementary school facilities. Information is shared with the elementary schools regarding FENWC students that will be entering the Kindergarten classroom. FENWC assists the families and the elementary schools with kindergarten registration. Following is a summary of identified program weaknesses and strategies taken to remedy the deficiencies. 1304.3-8(a)1 A mental health professional shall be available, at least on a consultation basis to the Head Start program and to the children to Assist in planning mental health program. • The current contract with Weld Mental Health specifies that the Mental Health Consultant will assist the Health Specialist in the development of the Mental Health Plan. • The Mental Health Plan will be approved by the Parent Policy Council in May 1995 or upon completion. 1304.3-8(a)4 Advise and assist in development screening and assessment. The current contract with Weld Mental Health specifies that the Mental Health Consultant will assist with the development screening and assessment for children referred due to familial stress, emotional/behavioral concerns and other mental health related issues. 1305.5(c) The program, except if it is a migrant program, has obtained a number of applications during the recruitment process that is greater than the enrollment opportunities anticipated to be available over the course of the next enrollment year in order to select those with the greatest need for Head Start services. A recruitment policy was developed specifying that 80% of enrollment is to be complete the end of April, 100% of enrollment is to be complete by the end of May and 110% of enrollment is to be complete by the end of July. All centers are required to maintain a minimum waiting list of 10%. OA(locin 1306.22(a) The grantee has developed and implemented a system to actively recruit, train, and utilize volunteers in the program to the fullest extent possible. A volunteer policy has been in place for many years; however, was not effectively implemented in program year 1994. • Staff will actively recruit volunteers in accordance with the program policy and Head Start Performance Standards. Volunteer group training will occur quarterly and at each individual site as needed. An intergenerational program will be fully implemented by November, 1994. • A Parent Involvement/Volunteer Specialist will be hired by the end October 1994. 41f1RQa BUDGET NARRATIVE PROGRAM YEAR 1994 PROGRAM ACCOUNT 22 3.
