PITTSBURG — Communities in southeast Kansas and Wyandotte County are home to a new early childhood home visitation program — Early Steps to School Success (ESSS). Developed by Save the Children, the literacy oriented program helps ensure children are ready for success in school.
The program is broken up into two age groups, before birth to three years old and three to five year olds.
The program works with parents who have not given birth yet to get the parents ready for when the baby arrives.
