CFY's approach is focused and comprehensive.

To improve children’s learning environment at home, all of CFY’s programs are designed to accomplish one of three goals:

• Enhance the educational resources available in children's homes.

  CFY's computer-based home learning centers are designed by software experts and tested by students and education executives from around the country.



• Improve parent-child interaction around learning at home.

  CFY's workshops improve parents' confidence in helping their children learn. Our home learning centers supplement parents who themselves may have little education (the software provides the “knowledge of probability" while the parent provides the motivation). CFY turns “family time” into “learning time.”



• Help teachers connect classroom learning with the home.

  CFY's program works with principals to set school-wide goals and trains teachers to create powerful links to at-home learning.
