Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Within the next five years, we will seek external validation of our unique, evidence-based approach. Working with partners in higher education, we will validate, publish, and share our framework with other early childhood centers, therapists, and social workers serving high need, historically excluded communities. Through the replication of our approach, the potential impact of Generation One is limitless.

If we provide high quality, systemic programs and services that are trauma-informed and Social Emotional Learning (SEL) focused with skilled, culturally responsive practitioners for our children and families, so they thrive and reach their fullest potential, we will see an increase in kindergarten readiness, SEL competence, parent engagement and satisfaction, and improved family relationships. We will track quality, growth, achievement of children, families, programs, services, and organization, then we will have measurable data that targets areas for growth, documents success, and validates the replicable framework. These measures will track the consistency of high quality education and the positive impacts children and families.
