“The children of today will be the leaders of tomorrow.” 
“The Crispus Attucks Early Learning Center has been developing leaders for the York community for the past 75 years. Some examples are: Dr. Julia Hines-Harris, Mattie Chapman, football great Woody Bennett, and many, many others. Early intervention, along with quality programs and a genuine love for children are some of the many ingredients in developing a child’s mind. We partner with our Early Learning Center parents to provide a caring and nurturing environment for our young people. Your financial support will help us to continue to develop our leaders for tomorrow!”
