STRENGTHENING COMMUNITY THROUGH THE ARTS 4 ASSOCIATION REPORT LAWP EMPLOYEES’ LAWP EMPLOYEES’ ASSOCIATION REPORT 5 SPOTLIGHT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR QUALITY, CONVENIENT PRESCHOOL AND CHILD CARE DOWNTOWN? Mt. Washington Preschool and Child Care Centers, Inc. (MWPCCC) is an independent nonprofit organization that operates preschool and child care centers for children ages 6 weeks to 5 years old. Their approach includes a developmentally appropriate curriculum; caring and nurturing staff; and a commitment to children’s social well-being, in an environment that respects and celebrates diversity. Two of the centers run by MWPCCC are located downtown and are eligible for the subsidy provided by LADWP. Joy Picus Child Development Center (CCL # 198015239 & 198015240) is in City Hall South, at 111 E. 1st St., and is open M-F from 6:30 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. For a tour or more information, call 213978-0026. Children are welcome at both centers from two to five days a week. Harry Pregerson Child Development Center (CCL # 198008722 & 198008723) is in the Roybal Federal Building, at 255 E. Temple St., and is open M-F from 6:45 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. The Harry Pregerson Center was recently accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC); call 213-894-1556 with questions. 6 ASSOCIATION REPORT LAWP EMPLOYEES’ MWPCCC’s philosophy is to address the needs of the whole child by nurturing physical, social, emotional and cognitive growth while fostering a sense of competence and self-worth. Caring teachers and staff provide children with opportunities to explore and experiment through Creative Curriculum that focuses on hands-on, developmentally appropriate activities. Children are allowed to discover things at their own rates and build self confidence by playing in the various classroom environments such as manipulatives (i.e., blocks), dress-up, imaginative play (i.e., kitchen toys), and reading areas. Both centers welcome all downtown families, and LADWP will help subsidize tuition for employees.

FAMILY CARE FAMILY MEETINGS: MAINTAINING STRONG FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS By Judy Borenzweig, Parent Coordinator, Family Care A family meeting is a structured discussion time that involves all family members if the children are school aged or older. In families where there are younger children (infants and toddlers), it is a good idea to schedule the meeting after the younger children are in bed. Your initial meetings should be kept short to about 15 minutes. As family members get better at communicating, the time can be lengthened. At the first family meeting, there should be a discussion of the ground rules. Some good ground rules to establish are not interrupting someone who is speaking, not putting people down, no fighting or arguing and allowing each person to share their opinions without criticisms. It is also important to decide what should happen if someone breaks the rules and misbehaves during a meeting. Family meetings are used to discuss and deal with a variety of issues including family problems, family activities, chores and discussion of good things that have happened. Parents should be careful not to dominate the conversation and allow every family member the chance to express his or her views. The meetings should preferably take place where there are few distractions. One good place to hold these meetings is around the kitchen or dining room table after the dishes have been cleared. It is not a good idea to hold these meetings during mealtimes. It is very important to hold these meetings at a consistent time and ensure that everyone sticks to the schedule. No one will take the meetings seriously if they are frequently cancelled. Every effort should be made to start the meeting on time. Meetings should be held, even if there appears to be no critical issues to discuss. In instances where critical issues are absent, families can focus on and talk about positive things taking place. Meetings will run more smoothly if each meeting has an agenda. A good way of developing an agenda is to have an “agenda 8 ASSOCIATION REPORT LAWP EMPLOYEES’ list” where each person has the opportunity to include his/her item on the list. Families should include positive things that have happened in the past week, as well as, items that need to be resolved. This list of items can be used to guide the discussions that take place at the family meeting. Families should start the meeting by talking about the positive things that each family member experienced. The primary purpose of family meetings is to teach problem solving skills to children. For each issue, the family should start by trying to define exactly what the problem is and then try to generate a list of possible solutions. The family should not try to evaluate potential solutions until the list is complete. When the list of solutions is complete, families should go through the list and evaluate the positive and negative aspects of each solution. Ultimately, the family should attempt to reach a consensus on the best solution for all involved.
