The Arc of Livingston-Wyoming has operated a KidStart program for
more than 30 years at the Holcomb Center on the SUNY Geneseo campus, and for
over 15 years each in Dansville and Mt. Morris.
KidStart was opened in Geneseo in 1977 as Children's Services, to serve preschool children with developmental delays and/or diagnosed disabilities. In 1992 KidStart added Day Care/School Age Programs and in 1993 the
Head Start Program. Head Start and
Preschool Programs were also opened in 1993 at two new sites, Dansville and Mt. Morris.
Over the past 30 years KidStart has grown from serving 12 children to serving over 300 children, from 8 counties and 18 school districts. Children are served in 16 classrooms and home/community based services are also provided by KidStart staff.
