Quality Matters...

A strong start for kids in Santa Clara County

FIRST 5 Santa Clara County is proud to serve the young children and families of our county as a funder, a resource, and an advocate. Below you’ll find informational videos on just some of our programs.

Under the FIRST 5 Early Learning Initiative, QUALITY MATTERS…a STRONG START for kids is a community partnership focused on increasing the quality of early learning programs serving children ages birth though 5 in Santa Clara County.
FIRST 5 Family Resource Center Initiative is a place-based strategy that strengthens knowledge of child development, family resilience, and social connections.
Under the FIRST 5 Family Strengthening and Support Initiative, the Incarcerated Parents Program provides services to support incarcerated and recently released parents and caregivers in maintaining an active role in their child’s life.

We invest locally in health, early learning, and family support programs based on the needs of our community’s youngest children and their families.

Getting involved with the FIRST 5 Santa Clara County community empowers you to learn, engage, and share your experiences
