Jasper County First Steps is seeking your input to better understand the needs of families with young children (birth to age five) in our community. Your feedback is essential as we prepare our 3-year strategic plan (June 2026 – July 2029) to ensure programs and services are designed to best support our youngest children and their families.

The first years of life are the most critical for a child’s brain development. During this stage, children are rapidly growing, learning, and building the foundation for their future health, learning, and success. Early intervention and support not only help children thrive, but also strengthen families and create long-lasting impacts for our entire community.

The survey is short — it will take about 5–10 minutes — and all responses are completely anonymous and confidential.

We encourage you not only to share your thoughts, but also to pass the survey link along to friends, family, and others in your circle. The more voices we hear, the better we can serve Jasper County’s children and families.

Thank you in advance for helping us build a stronger foundation for the future of our community’s youngest learners. Together, we can make a lasting difference.

Yours in service to children,

Duchett Polite, Executive Director
