Pre-K Program Helps Low-Income Kids Succeed

Description

MONDAY, Oct. 3, 2016 (HealthDay News) -- A pre-kindergarten program designed to help low-income minority children develop social and other skills appears to boost school performance, a new study shows. Researchers conducted a three-year follow-up on ParentCorps -- a family-focused, school-based program -- at New York City public schools with pre-kindergarten programs. The study included nearly 800 children, with about half of them at five schools with ParentCorps in pre-kindergarten and the other half at schools without the program. United Press International is a leading provider of news, photos and information to millions of readers around the globe via UPI.com and its licensing services.

  • How They Blew It: Why Two Major Cities Are Dropping Google's COVID-19 Testing Program

    Gizmodo reports San Francisco and Alameda counties in California have stopped using Verily to test for the novel coronavirus. Google's health-centered sister company launched a $55 million pilot COVID-19 testing program earlier this year to set up mobile and stationary test sites. However, Verily’s services weren’t geared towards filling the needs of communities especially vulnerable to the pandemic. Specifically, the services put people of color, those with low income, and the homeless at a disadvantage for using Verily's site and accessing test results. Another complaint was that Verily reserves the right to use collected data for 'commercial product research and development.' While Verily says strict privacy controls are in place, critics say the system may still violate federal health data privacy laws.

  • How To Leverage Raises And Bonuses To Painlessly Beef Up Your Retirement Savings

    Freelance writer and Business Insider contributor Rebecca Chamaa and her husband had ambitious savings goals when they first got married. On the other hand, they weren't quite sure how to go about it. Should they save a fixed amount of income each month, or a percentage? If you have an employer-matched 401(k), Chamaa says it makes sense to at least contribute the same percentage. Otherwise, you're losing money! Also, live below your means. As your income rises, so will your savings. And if you pay off your debt, you can always increase your percentage, too. Same with bonuses. If your income fluctuates, save or invest what's left over after your bills are paid!
