Mission: Provide quality daycare services to the members of the ravenswood community.
Programs: The work of ravenswood community day care, inc. Is comprised of two integrated programs that represent the mission of the organization: to nurture young children. The larger program serves families in the ravenswood community by providing day care and developmental teaching for children ages 6 weeks to five years five days a week. This program is funded by fees for service and contributions from donors. The other related and completely integrated program is the parenting progress program, which will at its capacity comprise up to just less than one quarter of the day care's enrollment of 45 children. This program serves teen parents by providing day care for their children while the teens continue school, are engaged in work, and often are able to matriculate into college. At the same time the teens are mentored by a parenting progress coordinator who also provides classes in parenting skills, job coaching, health and wellness, etc. A government grant, action for children, subsidizes for the teen program, as well as private donations. The ravenswood community day care, inc. Board of directors, dedicated to this program, has made a commitment to allow the teens to have a greatly reduced tuition for their children in order to continue their education.
