Whole Family Support for the First Five Years and Beyond

We believe in a Whole Family Approach to creating opportunities and building resilience for families throughout NW Oregon and beyond.

Our Child & Family Programs focus on the critical early years of a child’s life—The First Five Years—while providing comprehensive support to the entire family.

We understand that when families thrive, children thrive, which is why our programs address the needs of both children and their caregivers, fostering stability, well-being, and success for every family member.


The Whole Family Approach: Supporting Generations

At CAT, we believe in breaking the cycle of poverty by addressing the needs of the whole family. Our programs are designed to support both children and their caregivers, offering holistic services that ensure families can build a strong foundation for the future.

  • For Children: We provide essential early childhood services during the first five years, setting the stage for lifelong learning and development.
  • For Parents and Caregivers: We offer parenting support, financial literacy resources, health services, and access to basic necessities that strengthen family stability.

A community centered approach

  • Whole Family Support: We understand that children and parents thrive together. Our programs serve the needs of both children and their caregivers.
  • Focused on the First Five Years: These critical early years shape a child’s future, and our programs are designed to ensure every child enters school healthy, supported, and ready to learn.
  • Community-Centered: We are rooted in the communities we serve, tailoring our services to meet the unique needs of local families.

Through our Whole Family Approach, we aim to create lasting change that supports children and families from the earliest years and empowers them to build strong, stable, and successful lives.

Together, we can support whole families and ensure that every child has the foundation they need to thrive!
