Cardboard Kids Is a Child Abuse Prevention Campaign Happening in San Antonio and
PCI is participating! To bring awareness to this incredibly urgent issue, ChildSafe created
the Cardboard Kids Campaign. Cardboard Kids are 2-foot tall cardboard figures shaped
like children that represent one of the thousands of children that are abused and neglected
at the hands of adults in our community each year. Community members, businesses,
and families are encouraged to decorate and display their own Cardboard Kids on
“Reveal Day” on Thursday April 4, to create awareness about child abuse and
neglect and our mission of ending child abuse in Bexar County.
If you’ve kept track of the news, you’ve heard that many of the school districts are
moving towards full day prekindergarten. This is wonderful news for the number of 4-
year olds not able to benefit from a full day setting. Research is clear about the benefits of
quality, early childhood education, especially for children of poverty, and Head Start has
been providing full-day quality education and comprehensive service since its inception.
So, we would like to share some of the things that make PCI stand out!
The mission of Parent/Child Incorporated is to provide high-quality early childhood
developmental and educational services in order to empower our children and their
families to become responsible citizens who value education and community.
"It's in our DNA" to provide high-quality early childhood developmental and
educational services
1. Over 40 year of ECE (birth to 5 years old) knowledge and services to children and
families
2. Continuity of Care
3. Small teacher/child ratios
4. Shared Governance
5. Data Driven
6. Congressional Support
7. Experienced and degreed early childhood educators
8. Serve Early Head Start, 3year olds and 4-year olds

Empower our Families - Passion for the Whole Family
1. Policy Council (Over 50% parents)
2. Parent Committees per Early Learning Center
3. Incredible Year Parent Curriculum
4. Parent Engagement
5. Comprehensive care

7. Balanced curriculum of academic and child development

Empower our Children: Passion for Success from Cradle to Careers
1. Leadership PCI
2. STEAM
3. Fenfield Environmental Resource Center
4. Brady Learning Resource Center
5. PCI Early Learning Academy (from cradle to careers)
Community Inspired - We are Where Your Work

2. Child Care Partnership Programs throughout San Antonio
3. Policy Council - Community Representative
So, spread the word PCI! Why fit in when we Stand Out!
“We’re Growing San Antonio’s Tomorrow…Today!”
As I close, I’d like to commend you on all that you do. The daily news reminds us of how
blessed we are. There are thousands of people without homes, jobs, insurance, and can’t
pay their bills. All of this brings to mind how thankful we should be to have steady
employment and to do our best to provide the high quality our mission states. So I
challenge each of you to maintain a positive and family friendly attitude, be tolerant of
others and treat others the way you’d like to be treated.
Have a great week!
“PCI…Data Driven…Community Inspired…2.0!”
“We’re Growing San Antonio’s Tomorrow… Today!”
