EPEL is committed to engaging, informing, equipping, and supporting families from the very start. Families like Janet’s are at the heart of our work—helping parents build confidence, access resources, and create strong early learning foundations for their children. From her first child as an infant to now supporting her new baby, EPEL has walked alongside Janet, ensuring she has the tools to nurture her children’s development.
Early experiences shape school readiness, and when families feel empowered with knowledge and support, children enter kindergarten prepared to thrive. Every connection we make strengthens our community’s future—one child, one family, and one community at a time.
