Ready isn’t luck. Ready is built, and SPARK builds it right at your kitchen table. SPARK (Supporting Partnerships to Assure Ready Kids) brings kindergarten readiness home: a dedicated Parent Partner visits your family regularly with developmentally matched activities, books, and materials, and coaches you as your child’s first and most important teacher.
SPARK works two generations at once: every visit serves your child and backs you up at the same time. Together we track your child’s growth, celebrate the milestones, and make sure your child walks into kindergarten ready to learn, not ready to catch up. Family Connections has delivered SPARK in Cuyahoga County since 2010, and several of our Parent Partners came up through the program with their own children first.
What families can expect:
- Regular home visits across the program year
- Developmental screenings and an individualized learning plan for your child
- Books and learning materials to keep
- A trusted Parent Partner who knows your family
