A Letter From the YMCA Early Childhood Development Co., LLC Board Chair
Dear Friends,
As chairman of the YMCA/Early Childhood Development Co., LLC’s board, it is with great
pride and pleasure that I share with you the annual report of the YMCA/Early Childhood
Development Co., LLC (ECDC). The Metro Atlanta YMCA ECDC program is one the area’s
largest providers of Head Start. We have had another successful year delivering services
and programs to the families we serve as close as Fulton County and as far as Northe ast
Georgia. In addition to 13 successful years of service delivery, we have also reaped the
reward of being financially sound.
During these 13 years of growth we have gone through four expansions of our services
and delivery areas with our most recent being the Northeast Georgia region which in -
cludes the counties of Barrow, Elbert, Greene, Morgan and Oglethorpe. We have strength -
ened our partnership with our school boards. With two successful Impact Studies we have
shown measurable improvements in our children’s education. We have achieved the goal
of having our Head Start children prepared to enter publ ic school meeting the school
readiness goals.
In addit ion to the growth of our chi ldren, we have seen our families grow as wel l. This
has been done through our center parent committees, policy council, parent/family com -
munity engagement conference, and the Fatherhood Initiative. When parents were asked to
rate their YMCA Head Start program on 17 performance attributes , the programs received
high scores on all attributes from a majority of parents. Program strengths receiving “ex -
cellent” scores from more than 7 out of 10 parents were as fol lows; this is only a sam -
pling.
D P r ov i d i ng a s a fe env i ronment
D Teachers really getting to know their children
D Preparing their children for Pre-K or kindergarten
D Being well-organized in the classroom
D Improving their children’s social skills, behavior and academic skills
As the cha irman of the YMCA/ECDC board , the YMCA Publ i c Pol i cy Committee, and
having been involved for over twenty years with the Metro Atlanta YMCA it is my plea -
sure and honor to offer to you the YMCA/Early Childhood Development Co., LLC’s annual
report.

FAMILY INVOLVEMENT and PARENT ENGAGEMENT
CDC Head Start values the parent as the first and
most important teacher of their children. So parents
are involved in every aspect
of our program. Families are empowered through
direct involvement in policy and decision making
that help govern the ECDC Head Start program.
They are our volunteers, our committee and board
members and our social services clients.
Parent engagement is encouraged in every aspect
of Head Start. Parenting education and support
reinforce the concept that parents are empowered
through direct involvement in the policy -making
and decision-making that governs each Head Start
program.
Parent involvement included train the trainer for
Parent Committee elected officers, “Making
Parenting a Pleasure” training, the establishment
of GED center and the awarding of certificates to
parents in recognition of participation in program
activities, volunteerism and committees.
The 2011-2012 school-year reported a program wide
increase in parent engagement activities which
culminated in our 2012 Parent Conference. This
year’s conference attendees represented the
largest number of attendees since our program’s
inception.
This school year parents attended The Parent Training Institute (PTI) which was
developed to offer parents a curriculum of training in subjects such as Money Basics,
Leadership, Parenting, and Handling Stress. Parents were encouraged to complete the
entire institute to receive certificates of completion and PTI Bucks that were used in
the Parent Resource store at the 2012 Annual Parent Conference in April.

Fatherhood
The increase in fatherhood involvement is an ongoing agency goal. In 2010 -2011
ECDC staff uti l ized the National Partnership for Community Leadership (NPCL)
Fatherhood Curr iculum to fac i l i tate a half -day fatherhood conference and also
hosted two fatherhood planning meetings for the launching of Eagle Eye D.A.D.S.
ECDC fathers currently represent our program nationally, on the NHSA’s Parent,
Family and Community Engagement board and locally as our 2011 -2012 Volunteer
of the Year. The increased presence of men, especial ly ECDC fathers, as members
of the Policy Council also pays tribute to the success of our growing fatherhood
initiative.
CHILD HEALTH, NUTRITION and DEVELOPMENTAL SERVICES
Child Health
ECDC promotes healthy and preventative behaviors and practices that can prevent
i l lness and enhance a child’s l i felong well -being.
Every child receives Comprehensive health care including a complete examination
with a screening for any chronic or disabling conditions, a vision and hearing test,
immunizations, and a dental checkup. Mental health professionals provide services
to children and famil ies in need.
During the 2010-2011 school year 87% of enrolled Head Start children received a
medical exam and 97% received dental exams. In our Early Head Start program,
80% of enrolled children received health exams.

CHILD NUTRITION
Nutrition
Head Start programs also focus on each child’s nutr it ion needs. ECDC partic ipates
in the Chi ld and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) and a l l meals are USDA
approved. Parents are a lways inv i ted to par t ic ipate in Spr ing and Fa l l menu
planning.
This school year the number of meals our cooks served:

DISABILITY SERVICES
Each local Head Start program must serve at least 10% of children with document ed
disabil it ies. Al l Head Start children are screened assessed and referred for serv ices
and indiv idual ized p lans. ECDC Head Start has developed interagency agreements
with public schools and service providers to assure that children with disabilities
receive the services, therapies and intervention they need.
ECDC provided services for children with conditions including speech impairments,
learn ing d isabi l i t ies, aut ism and behav ior d isorders. In our effor ts to more
aggressively meet and exceed 10% mandate, ECDC implemented a proact ive,
extens ive recru i tment p lan to help ident i fy more ch i ldren wi th d isab i l i t ies to
include severe disabil it ies. Primary agency partners in these ongoing efforts are
Babies Can’t Wait and the local LEA.

INITIATIVES
Literacy, Health and Fitness
Literacy Initiatives
The Georgia Campaign for Grade Level Reading in Partnership with the Y
The Campa ign for Grade Leve l Read ing i s a nat ional movement des igned to
provide focused and sustained attention on children from birth through age eight,
supporting their early l iteracy development and their ability to become proficient
readers by the end of the third grade. Studies show that at least half of the
educat ional ach ievement gaps between ch i ldren from low income and h igher -
income households exist at the kindergarten entry. Researchers have linked this
achievement gap to dif ferences in the quantity and qual i ty of verbal interact ion
within famil ies. One landmark study found that in their f irst years of l ife, chi ldren
from low-income households hear as many as 30 mil l ion fewer words than children
from higher- income households. This 30 Mi l l ion -Word Gap l imits the development
of a chi ld’s vocabulary. Studies also show tha t a child ’s vocabulary as ear ly as age
3 can predict third grade reading achievement.
Read Right from the Start
With support from the Joseph B. Whitehead Foundation in 2009, the Rollins Center
partnered with Bright from the Start Pre-K Program, the United Way of Metropolitan
Atlanta, Georgia State University and the Hanson Initiative for Language & Literacy at
Massachusetts General Hospital to
implement Read Right from the
Start: Georgia Pre-K Professional
Development Project (hereafter
referred to as Read Right). This
initiative focused on strengthening
and enriching the language and
literacy development of young
children through professional
development, coaching, and
mentoring to Pre-K teachers and
teacher assistants. In order to
evaluate the teacher, classroom,
and child outcomes from the
project, a group of research faculty
at Georgia State University conducted an independent evaluation of the project.
The project initiated in Head Start classrooms at Dean Rusk, Chattahoochee, YMCA
preschool sites and six Atlanta Public School sites. Assessment data is being com piled
by Georgia State and wil l be available in August 2012.
The project is set to expand next school year to an additional 42 classrooms at
traditional and partner sites in Fulton county and Northeast GA. The focus for
2012-2013 is REAL-Time and PAC-Time.
REAL-Time is the acronym for: Read, Explore, Ask and Learn. This is a strategy used
for reading informational text books. The goal is to provide background knowledge,
support comprehension of narratives and prepare children for 3rd/4th grade text
books. PAC-Time is the acronym for: Phonological Awareness, Alphabet Knowledge
and Concept of Print. The goal is to enhance early literacy skills through phonological
awareness activities.

INTERNAL & EXTERNAL AUDITS, AGENCY ASSESSMENTS, ACCREDITATION
2010 Federal Monitoring
A Federal-monitoring visit was conducted during the week of November 14 -19,
2010. As a result of the week-long review, only one area was cited:
1304.20(a)(1)(ii) (A) Child Health and Development Services (Lead Screening). Based
on the review determination the YMCA/ECDC Head Start program has acted swift ly
to revise policies and procedures regarding lead screening for all Head Start enroll -
ees. In accord with the Head Start Performance Standards and Georgia Department
of Community Health/Div is ion of Publ ic Heal th, we developed a strategy and
incorporated procedures to faci l itate obtaining lead screening results for al l of our
Ear ly Head Star t (EHS) and Head Star t (HS) enrol led ch i ldren. Accord ing ly , we
have generated the Lead Screening Action P lan Report, which detai ls activ i t ies
conducted; plans for staff pre-service training; and a Lead Education and Treatment
(“Get the Lead Out”) Parent Education Packet.
Independent Audit
An annual independent audit is conducted in compliance with the requirements
described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget OMB) Circular A - 133.
The most recent audit found that ECDC complied in all material respects with the
requirements applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended
December 31, 2011.
NAEYC Accreditations
All of ECDC Head Start centers are l icensed and NAEYC Accredited. More than
70% of ECDC’s partnership sites is accredited.
Self -Assessment
The Head Start Program Performance Standards requires that at least once each
program year, with the consultation and participation of the policy groups and, as
appropriate, other community members, programs conduct a self -assessment.
20
21
ECDC has conducted its annual self-assessment in accordance with the Performance
Standards requirement. Partic ipants included staff, policy council, board members
and ear ly ch i ldhood educat ion consul tants. The process began with a fu l l day
training and col lect ion of information from key data sources uti l iz ing Monitor ing
Protocol Guides. After f indings and successes were noted, corrective act ion plans
were created, approved and implemented. The Self -Assessment results were also
used in agency planning.
Impact Study
An Impact Study of Head Start was conducted last year. According to the Study,
all evidence points to notable positive impacts on our children and families. This is
despite the economically disadvantaged and “at r isk” condit ions our children and
families are faced with in their day-to-day lives. In addition the Study revealed our
Head Start administrative staff ing and assessment outcomes to be superior to na -
tional and state averages. Insofar as needs, rel iable transportation was highlighted
as one of our most pressing concerns. This concern was also reiterated during the
parent focus group that was conducted during the 2010 on -site monitoring review.
