Family Resource Center
The Deer Valley Family Resource Center provides support and resources to parents and caregivers to help set the foundation for building strong families during the critical early developmental years and to help prepare children for kindergarten. The Deer Valley Family Resource Center provides resources, referrals to support services, and educational programming for families with children from birth through age five (not yet in kindergarten).
The Deer Valley Family Resource Center wants to empower parents and caregivers to become educators themselves and join in the joy of enhancing their child's learning during the critical developmental years.
Support for the Deer Valley Family Resource Center is provided by a grant from First Things First, which partners with families and communities to give all Arizona children the opportunity to arrive at kindergarten healthy and ready to succeed.

Why Early Childhood Matters
90% of a child’s brain develops before they start kindergarten. And research shows that the quality of a child’s experiences in their first five years helps shape how their brain develops.
Kids with positive, stable relationships with parents and caregivers, as well as quality child care and preschool experiences, go on to do better in school and in life. They’re more likely to read at grade level and graduate from high school. They are more prepared for college and career.
