ECFE is based on the idea that parents/caregivers are a child's first and most enduring teachers.  

Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) is a parenting education program for all families and caregivers with children between the ages of birth to kindergarten entrance. To support continued parent engagement in children's learning and development, some ECFE classes offer programming for parents with children up to third grade,

ECFE classes provide parents and their children the opportunity to meet other parents/caregivers and young children through a wide variety of classes and one-time special events. Classes emphasize learning together through purposeful play while offering parents/caregivers parenting information and support.
