Summary
This project supports a 2-year playgroup program for children ages 2 to 3 years old from impoverished "Denotified Tribe" slum communities in India. These children will be the first in their families to go to school. The focus of the playgroup is to acclimate the children to a school environment, improve school readiness through play, games, songs, and activities, while also imparting valuable parenting skills to the parents who accompany the children. Free meals and healthcare are provided.
