Mission: The mission of Small Steps Nurturing Center is to provide an exemplary early childhood program to instill and foster the social, emotional, physical, intellectual, and spiritual growth of economically at-risk children and their families. Small Steps believes that the way to prepare disadvantaged children for success in elementary school and life is through participation in a comprehensive, high-quality early childhood education program. Small Steps' accredited program seeks to narrow the opportunity gap for our students, support their holistic development, and ultimately change the cycle of intergenerational poverty for their families. Small Steps' approach to early childhood education makes a lasting impact in our students' lives. Through operating preschools serving the Fifth Ward and Gulfton neighborhoods, we create a community of learning and support for our students and families. (Less)
