Success
By 6 is a children's initiative to discover ways to ensure all
children are prepared and ready to succeed as they enter first
grade.
What are we doing? Success By 6 offers the following programs
in our community:
Better Beginnings - Volunteers are recruited to read,
rock, sing, and play with children in local daycares. We model
behavior to emphasize early brain development in children spending
8-12 hours a day in a childcare center.
Boost America - We offer free booster
seats to children 40-80 pounds who qualify. Click on this link

Brain Train - We work with pregnant
teens in the Etowah County, Attalla City and Gadsden City school
systems to show them games and activities that will help stimulate
brain development in children birth to 3 years old.
Freebie Reads - Books are given to children age birth
to 6 years.
H.O.M.E. - Helping Our Mothers Excel - is an in-home
visitation program to new mothers provided through a contract with
the Family Success Center.
