BRECEC's mission is to facilitate the collaboration of organizations in providing home-based earlyl childhood education and support for familiies and caregivers of under-resourced children, ages 0-4 years old. BRECEC's goal is to address the educational needs of unserved preschool children who are not in a Learning Center or Head Start program. These children are receiving in-home care from family members or other caregivers, who often have little knowledge of child development nor recognize the importance of their role as the child's first teacher and caregiver.BRECEC's Home Start Early Childhood and Wellness program was initiated in March 2021. The program provides services to East Baton Rouge Parish families and other unserved families in surrounding parishes. Over 255 famililies with 367 children have been enrolled in the program since March 2021. Included are families served by Home-Based Child Care Providers participating in the program. 277789 true false false false false false false false false false true false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 false 12 false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 7 7 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false false true true false X THE ORGANIZATION 2259288484 4826 JAMESTOWN AVE SUITE 1C BATON ROUGE LA 70808 SHELIA CHAVIS EDUCATION DIRECTOR / SITE COORDINAT 40.00 0.00 47230 0 0 DAN CHAVIS Treasurer 40.00 0.00 X X 30600 0 0 PATRICIA SMITH EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 0.00 21333 0 0 DR PATRICIA EDWARDS Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DR EMMA BORSKEY Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 THETA WILLIAMS Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 REV CLEE LOWE President 8.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 DR KASUNDRA CYRUS Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 REV RONALD SUTTON Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 99163 0 false false false 0 12300 12300 Fees & Contracts Gov Agencies 319140 319140 319140 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 331440 319140 0 0 0 0 99163 68563 30600 0 168399 160144 8255 0 0 0 0 0 11933 11933 0 0 6367 4550 1817 0 6394 6394 4703 4703 0 0 70755 13655 57100 2548 2548 0 0 0 0 5462 5462 11786 11786 SUPPLIES 27715 27715 MISCELLANEOUS 1200 1200 Printing and Publications 1162 1162 LICENSE AND TAXES 800 800 1017 1017 419404 277789 135221 6394 241834 128837 0 200000 170000 66000 0 0 0 0 0 20923 10207 14360 10716 0 0 0 0 101800 31964 557994 407517 7323 101799 31963 101799 39286 X 456195 368231 456195 368231 557994 407517 -87964 X true X false false false X 100000 488429 640935 32300 1261664 0 0 100000 488429 640935 32300 1261664 0 1261664 0 0 0 1261664 X 0.00000 13514 7748 5766 7409 2459 4950 10716 RIGHT OF USE ASSETS 31963 Rounding 1 31964 LEASE LIABILITY 31963 31963 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 The Organization's COO/CFO is married to the Education Director / Site Coordinator.
