“This program is priceless for us… I don’t know what I would do without the DFEO program—both the morning and the after-school program. My kids are so much more social now. They’re studying more, reading more, and doing amazing in school because of the program.”
— Rosie, DFEO Parent | Mother of Two Sons in Programming
