We’ve provided services to the Bedford Stuyvesant and Bushwick communities for over 30 years, and we haven’t done it alone. As a community-based organization, HCHCIC ACE Integration Head Start relies on and benefits from some key long-standing partnerships. The relationships that the organization has built with other nonprofit organizations and resources makes all the difference when it comes to maintaining our competitive edge in the early childhood education arena. It’s also a critical factor when it comes to future opportunities for expanding our capacity.
