Company OverviewWay to Grow’s mission is to engage diverse parents and families to nurture and prepare their children for school and life success through community-driven family support programs and connections to services. The goals of the organization are are for children to be born healthy, stay healthy, and develop to their maximum potential for school readiness. Program activities holistically focus on ensuring young children are physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively ready to start kindergarten. School readiness services encompass three areas: parent and child education, health education, and family support services.Way to Grow was established in 1989 to dramatically improve children’s readiness for kindergarten. Concerned about the number of children who started behind - and stayed behind – their peers in school, Mayor Don Fraser and other community leaders started Way to Grow to provide school readiness and family support programs. After fifteen years as a program of the Minneapolis Youth Coordinating Board, Way to Grow attained independent status as a nonprofit organization in 2004.
