Parents are the first – and most important – teachers in their child’s life. That’s why carya is committed to helping parents give their children the tools to succeed in learning and in life.
Ready 4 Learning, formerly known as the Bowness Montgomery Early Literacy Project, is a community-based partnership that provides programs and support for families with children from newborn to five years old.
We help ensure that families with children are supported in their development through: parenthood conversation groups that encourage parents to help one another, contribute to each other’s growth, and build strong social networks, community groups to promote positive early childhood development that is directly linked to school readiness and academic success, and family literacy programs that help parents capitalize on the tremendous learning opportunities that exist in everyday life.
This program is currently available in the communities of Bowness, Montgomery and Greenwood Village.
Ready 4 Learning is a partnership between carya and the United Way of Calgary and Area.
