HIPPY at home, happy at school
The first children to benefit from SFU's three-year-old Home
Instructional Program for Preschool Youngsters (HIPPY)
enrolled in Grade One this year, and their strong academic performance
underscores the value of this innovative educational outreach
program, soon to be implemented across Canada. In 2001, HIPPY's
volunteer home visitors helped more than 100 disadvantaged families
give their children the lasting gift of early literacy.
