Detailed Description

Prenatal to Age 3 Network

Result: Every child enters kindergarten ready to succeed.

Strategies

The Prenatal to Age 3 Network believes that supporting families in nurturing the holistic development of children from the start establishes a strong foundation for kindergarten entry and lifelong success. We are focused on five strategies:

Executing home visits
Increasing caregiver awareness about early developmental milestones
Promoting sustainable relationships between caregivers and providers
Addressing the mental health needs of caregivers and young children
Supporting initiatives that eliminate barriers and increase access to adequate prenatal care

In practice, this currently looks like:

Increasing initiation of prenatal care for pregnant people aged 15-19, with less than a high school education, and who identify as African-American

Engaging community stakeholders in the community co-design process to identify barriers and solutions to access to adequate prenatal care
Convening stakeholders to work collaboratively to address barriers

About Beam

Community Beam (dmcbeam.org) is a registry of private and public resources (organizations, projects, initiatives, programs) that underpin economic and social developments of greater Rochester:

For the commercial sector, we tend to register startup activities (new companies and new commercial projects) that bring diversification and high-impact opportunities to the area.
For the non-profit sector, we wish to shine light on all the organizations and services that otherwise labor under relative obscurity.
Our hope is that dmcbeam.org will encourage cross-sector collaborations and creative solutions.

While there are a number of registries in the community, dmcbeam.org's distinct value is to pilot a database with a data structure and categorizations that answer the questions such as: What organizations or projects/programs in our community that have purported relevance with some of the over-arching focuses put forward by initiatives such as DMC, J2G and Health Improvements?

This database could be used as one of the ways to explore the capacities of the community. If you are someone on an exploratory journey to learn about the greater Rochester community. dmcbeam.org could be an interesting first step.
