The Learning Cooperative Early Education Program
Your child learns more in his first 5 years than he will in college! Early learning may look like fun and games, but studies show that the biggest gains in brain development come before age 5! Early education sets the foundation for all learning to come. With stakes this high, your child deserves an early education that partners with parents and welcomes your participation.
The Learning Coop is brought to you by Salem Family Resources, a trusted partner and advocate for young children and their families since 1994.
The Learning Cooperative is a unique early education program that engages and empowers parents in their child's most critical learning years.
Children who attend an early education program are much more likely to finish high school and continue their education.
Give your child the TLC advantage!
Invest in a strong future!
Help us secure funding so all families can access a high-quality early education experience for their children, and our two-generation,
parent/child attachment strengthening program;
Parenting & Play Groups.
Scientific evidence links positive early experiences to healthy brain development. Children grow so fast and our window to reach them is short. Please make your tax-deductible donation today and create a brighter future for children and their families in the greater Salem community.

Stacey Bruzzese, Santo Insurance, ". “Each child was completely engaged in the narrative, eager to participate in the repetitive storylines and willing to predict the outcome of each tale,” noted Bruzzese. “I credit Salem Family Resources for the amazing readiness that each child displayed for not only reading, but active engagement in the activity. I was pleased that my story selections, those that had been favorites of my own children, were overwhelmingly accepted and enjoyed,” Bruzzese concluded.
Michael Delahanty, Superintendent, Salem School District
John DeBaun, Sr. VP at Pentucket Bank, said "the passion of Salem Family Resources for the welfare and growth of young children is clearly evident. It is a passion which certainly understands and seeks to overcome obstacles, which are always present and ever changing."
