Teams of 5-7 Jumpstart Corps Members will spend between 200 and 300 hours during the school year with PACE Head Start, ensuring children develop key kindergarten readiness skills. “In the face of COVID-19 and extended out-of-school time,” said Jumpstart CEO Naila Bolus, “Jumpstart is proud to be able to partner with UMass Dartmouth to support local children and communities hit hardest by gaps in access to critical early learning opportunities.” Jumpstart’s work advances equitable learning outcomes for young children in underserved communities through a combination of high-quality programming, advocacy, and leadership. Jumpstart-a national early education organization-believes that all children have the potential to succeed.

The program, typically delivered in person, is scheduled to begin virtually this fall. The Leduc Center at UMass Dartmouth has recently started a Jumpstart for Young Children (Jumpstart) program that will pair 30 UMass Dartmouth students as tutors and mentors with 100 Pre-K children at People Acting in Community Endeavors (PACE) Head Start in New Bedford.
