Lucas Learns and Grows in Head Start

In Coamo, a rural, mountainous region of Puerto Rico, it can be difficult for new mothers like Ileana to access quality resources for their kids. After much searching, she started her son Lucas in our Early Head Start program, which serves children ages 0-3 and their families. As a child with special needs, he has needed extra support—which The Foundling is equipped to provide.

Now at age 3, Lucas has transitioned into our Head Start Pre-K program where he will continue to learn and grow—with the same supportive team—until he is ready to begin school.
