The purpose of this blog is really two-fold. This blog will serve as a way to track my progress during my year of service as an AmeriCorps Vista member at Texas HIPPY, and to share with everyone the goals I'm setting, and my efforts to meet them. Secondly, it will be a place where members of the Carrollton and Farmers Branch communities can not only read up on my efforts and plans, but also where they can look for resources in our common goal of school-readiness for preschool youngsters!

My Goals as a Vista Member
GOAL 1: VISTA members will engage the professional community as well as stakeholders and potential collaborators in the community resulting in the establishment of a School Readiness Task Force that will develop and implement a plan to increase parent involvement and school readiness in the community.
GOAL 2: VISTA members will engage parents in the community in school readiness activities in order for children to enter school ready to succeed.
GOAL 3: VISTA members will develop the infrastructure, partnerships and resources necessary to establish a fully functioning and sustainable parent involvement and school readiness program in the community.
