Fountainhead Montessori School 

Fountainhead Montessori Schools Educational Philosophy Dr. Maria Montessori revolutionized education with her dynamic theories, which are the basis for Fountainhead’s educational philosophy. Each child is an individual accorded the respect due to every person. At the same time, children are not miniature adults; instead they think and learn in ways unique to their special time in life. Fountainhead Montessori provides an environment for children to literally create themselves through purposeful activity. Children age 18 months to 6 years old experience and learn through all of their senses. Everything is hands-on. When activity is purposeful, developmentally appropriate, and, above all, fun, learning is joyful.

<table><tbody><tr><td><table><tbody><tr><td><table><tbody><tr><td>If you care about housing in the Tri-Valley, we hope you’ll join us this Friday, October 2.Housing instability affects individuals, families, nonprofits, employers, schools, and communities. Understanding what’s happening now, and how our regional housing system is responding, is an important part of finding a path forward.</td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>Join the Tri-Valley Antipoverty Collaborative and Tri-Valley Nonprofit Alliance for a morning of connection, education, and action with regional organizations&nbsp; working to turn housing instability into housing stability.
Stable housing is a human right, but housing instability can feel like living in a house of cards – a single gust, a single challenge, and the fragile framework collapses. Just as a basic house of cards can be rebuilt into something sturdier, housing stability can be planned, with intention.&nbsp;
We’ll hear directly from Amy Cole-Bloom, PhD, of Alameda County Health’s Housing &amp; Homelessness Services, on the policy and systems-level work shaping our region’s response to the housing crisis. Contra Costa County Supervisor Candace Andersen will moderate a panel discussion of regional nonprofit leaders from Housing Consortium of the East Bay, Goodness Village, Trinity Center, and City Serve. They will examen what’s actually happening on the ground: shelters, transitional housing, and wraparound services turning crisis into stability for real families. We’ll then shine a spotlight on how local government and affordable housing developers are partnering to build lasting solutions, and close with an eye towards the future.
This isn’t just a conversation about a crisis. It’s a conversation about hope, and about what becomes possible when a community decides to build something sturdier, together. Don’t miss it.
Doors open at 9:00am for networking and light refreshments. The program will run from 9:30am – Noon.
