Homelessness influences all aspects of a childs development the stress of transition can impact academic performance and social competence. The Coalitions Renaissance Childrens Center (RCC) provides a safe, stable environment for children to develop the skills necessary to succeed in school and with their peers.
At the Childrens Center, teaching life skills is the number one priority. Children from economically stressed families sometimes lack the skills to diffuse anger, feel empathy, and resolve conflicts. Our staff is specially trained to help children learn how to develop these qualities. Highly trained staff members show children how to work well with others. They are given the tools for academic achievement and creative problem solving. Children of all income levels learn and play together, encouraging empathy and understanding amongst classmates from diverse economic backgrounds. Skills learned at RCC prevent future generations of homelessness while promoting long-term success.
RCC serves 85 children ranging in age from six weeks to 12 years, with 65 child care slots targeted for homeless and low-income families. The center has earned the prestigious 4-star Qualistar rating and is accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children.

The most meaningful way to help children learn and reach their fullest potential is to assist them in developing their ability to think, question, and validate their curiosity about the world. The Renaissance Childrens Center believes that children learn through actively participating in activities and projects that engage their individual curiosity and imaginations. The experiences we provide allow each child the freedom to explore and learn about topics that interest them. Children are respected as individuals in a child-oriented, versus teacher directed, program.
The care and education of each child is based on a partnership between the Center and the childs family. As such the Centers programs provide activities and services that involve and value the family and the community, including special events such as Family Nights. Our programs are enriched when parents and other community members lend their expertise to topics of study.
We understand that before becoming independent, a child must know he or she can depend on adults. Therefore, our teachers and staff provide security, stimulation, support, limits, and affection in a predictable, nurturing environment.
