Aliza Brandwine Center
(A.B.C.)

The Aliza Brandwine Center is a school-based family involvement program for parents/caregivers and their young children, birth to four years of age. A.B.C. provides children with essential stimulation and socialization at a critical learning period and empowers parents/caregivers through education and support as they prepare their children to enter school ready to learn. It welcomes families from all socio-economic and cultural groups. Several spaces in each class are reserved for families of children with special needs.

Each class session incorporates a variety of individual, small group, and whole group activities, some involving parent/caregiver interactions, and parent/caregiver informal discussion while children are in separate areas of the classroom. The A.B.C. curriculum focuses on activities to develop children’s early literacy and socialization skills. Parent/caregiver discussions focus on a variety of topics related to early childhood development and family issues.
