After offering Early Childcare Education opportunities to families for more than forty years PAL continues to be one of the major providers in the City of New York. We operate four full time Head Start programs, three Day Care/Collaboration programs and two pure Day Care programs. Within these programs PAL enhances learning opportunities by providing inclusion/disabilities opportunities in three of the four Head Start programs. These programs also benefit from the consultancy of a Nutritionist, Mental Health sponsors and a Health practitioner. Each center is staffed with Early Education Professionals, who ensure that children are given the best early learning experiences coupled with appropriate developmental opportunities through dance and music programs.
