What Kind of Programs Does PEI Fund?
PEI supports healthy social, emotional, and cognitive development of children and youth by promoting safe, stable, and secure relationships and nurturing community environments. Through funding programs and services designed to build a strong foundation for children, youth, and families to leverage, PEI strives to meet Texas's benchmarks for prevention, including reducing child abuse, enhancing school readiness, improving the social-emotional and physical health of children and families, and overall strengthening of Texas communities.
PEI assists communities in identifying, developing, and delivering high quality prevention and early intervention programs. These programs promote opportunities for partnerships that capitalize on the combined strengths of parents and children to build healthy families and resilient communities.
