About the Judy Center

Research shows that the quality of care that young children receive through child care experiences, public school programs, Head Start, etc. is critical to a child's development and future school success. Judy Centers assure high quality early care for all children birth through 5 years of age.

Judy Centers are partnerships of many community agencies working together to empower parents as they prepare their young children for school. The goal is to improve school readiness through early intervention, comprehensive services to families, and support for programs in the community that serve young children and their families.
