Besides us, residents living around this neighborhood have access to other different Child Care and Head Start programs. For instance, just the other day, a homeless mother with no sort of income came to our site to enroll her daughter in our Head Start program. Sadly, our Head Start program has passed the limit of enrollment so we couldn’t enroll anymore children. So we then started referring her to other Head Start programs around the neighborhood instead of letting her just go. Right across the street from my site, there is P.S 386. The public school starts from preschool to elementary school. When the kids come out of the school there is always a crossing guard there that make’s sure that kids cross the street safely. There are also many different public schools around the area as well. Bronx Community College is only ten minutes away walking distance. I go there sometimes when I don’t feel like going to Brooklyn, since I live in the Bronx. The New York City Board of Education is also ten minutes away from my agency, which allows parents to enroll their children starting from pre-k to high school. As stated in Farina (2017), It also helps parents get involved with volunteer work in their kids’ schools or finding out concerns that they’re child is experiencing. This board of education is in charge of all school districts. I have been there in the past to help a parent change their children’s school due to lack of learning and problem and concerns the mom had about the school. There is a post office five minutes away, which we use very frequently to send out mails. Ladder 33 is located just a few minutes away from us, as well as the 46th prescient which is about 5 minutes away from
