Note from the High Desert Education Service District:

The HDESD is truly a partner with Healthy Beginnings as we share the same vision for supporting our children and families, prioritizing their health, well-being and school readiness.  So many of our families who need support also need a strong and differentiated set of supports and resources; within the HDESD we provide a network of resources as we are a convener and connector for supports across sectors in our community that link directly to the services our children may need once screened by Healthy Beginnings. With an aligned vision and a common mission we play a role in supporting Healthy Beginnings to reach their strategic goals of ensuring every child is screened and receives services in order to thrive in life.
