990 for the year ended December 31, 2024

Program accomplishments

  • The Organization was organized in April 2019 and awarded 501(c)(3) status in July 2020. 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.
