The early-care hub will create approximately 200 more spaces for early childhood education, serving children ages 0 to 5, and will include a variety of wrap-around services to better serve young children, families and childcare professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Isabella Project was a direct response to community need,\u201d said Dr. Gabino Aguirre, Isabella Project co-chair. \u201cIn Santa Paula, two-thirds of parents reported needing care for young children but not being able to access it. To meet this need, we knew we needed a comprehensive, systemic roadmap to guide the process and bring this vision to life. Finding the location for the hub was at the heart of the Isabella Project\u2019s success.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Um dieses komplizierte Problem anzugehen, hat das Isabella-Projekt die Entwicklung der Santa Paula Early Childhood Education Roadmap beaufsichtigt, einer systemischen, gemeinschaftsorientierten und datengest\u00fctzten Strategie, die sich auf Folgendes konzentriert:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Erweiterung des Zugangs und der Erschwinglichkeit<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Investitionen in die Entwicklung und Bindung von Arbeitskr\u00e4ften<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Verbesserung der Infrastruktur<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Einbindung von Familien und der Gemeinschaft<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cStudies show that by age 5, 90% of a child\u2019s brain development is completed,\u201d said Dr. Carlos Dominguez, Briggs School District superintendent. \u201cTherefore, having access to high-quality early childhood education helps prepare children so they enter school ready to learn, and ensures our students are equipped to be academically successful as well as thrive beyond the classroom.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Isabella Project and the City of Santa Paula are both near and dear to me,\u201d said Jack Hinojosa, Child Development Resources CEO and Isabella Project co-chair. \u201cAttending school and growing up in Santa Paula and remembering my mom\u2019s legacy as a cook (Master Chef) at Santa Paula Head Start Center for 38 years makes this all the more personal for me. Head Start programs lay the foundation for our children to have lifetimes of success by providing the lessons and support needed in the early years, and to partner closely with parents\u2014children\u2019s first teachers\u2014showing them the importance of advocating and remaining involved as their children grow and learn. Parents are the cornerstone of Head Start, and the Isabella Project provides an excellent opportunity for us to show parents how important their voices are and that they matter.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The initial campus is expected to be mobile buildings and an opening date for The Isabella Project has yet to be determined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>- Das Isabella-Projekt ist ein Pilotprojekt, das sicherstellen soll, dass alle Kinder in Santa Paula Zugang zu qualitativ hochwertiger, ganzt\u00e4giger Fr\u00fchbetreuung und -erziehung haben, die den Bed\u00fcrfnissen ihrer Familien entspricht. Die Gruppe wurde erstmals im Jahr 2021 von der Ventura County Community Foundation ins Leben gerufen und setzt sich nun aus \u00fcber 120 Partnern aus dem gesamten Ventura County zusammen, die in verschiedenen Bereichen t\u00e4tig sind - von der Hochschulbildung \u00fcber die Kinderbetreuung bis hin zur psychiatrischen Versorgung und mehr. Das Projekt zielt darauf ab, ein Modell f\u00fcr die Schaffung eines Netzwerks von Rundumbetreuung durch bereits bestehende und neue Anbieter in der Stadt zu sein, das in anderen St\u00e4dten des Bezirks repliziert werden kann. <a href=\"http:\/\/vccf.org\/de\/isabella-project\/\">vccf.org\/isabella-project<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article was originally published by the Santa Paula Times.
