FACE Reports
In 1990, the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE)2 initiated the Family and Child Education (FACE) program, an integrated model for an American Indian early childhood education/parental involvement program. The FACE program primarily serves families with children prenatal to 5 years of age by providing early childhood, parenting and adult education services. The goals of the FACE program are to:
⧫ Support parents/primary caregivers in their role as their child's first and most influential teacher.
⧫ Strengthen family-school-community connections.
