Esta colaboraci\u00f3n ofreci\u00f3 a las familias un entorno acogedor donde pudieron sumergirse en actividades centradas en la alfabetizaci\u00f3n, rodeadas de la energ\u00eda y el apoyo de la comunidad local.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uno de los momentos m\u00e1s destacados del semestre fue la introducci\u00f3n de las tabletas educativas ApSeed, donadas por BASIC, para ni\u00f1os menores de cinco a\u00f1os en el Centro. Estas innovadoras herramientas brindaron a los j\u00f3venes estudiantes experiencias interactivas y atractivas que les ayudaron a desarrollar habilidades b\u00e1sicas de lectoescritura, sentando las bases para su crecimiento educativo.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote bb-st-pull\"><blockquote><p>Organizar el programa en el Centro para J\u00f3venes y Personas Mayores nos permiti\u00f3 reunir recursos, familias y un sentido de comunidad bajo un mismo techo.<\/p><cite>Nidia Meza, directora general de BASIC y miembro del consejo de administraci\u00f3n de BSYSC.<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGracias a las alianzas y al esfuerzo constante de nuestros colaboradores, estamos empoderando a las familias para que integren el aprendizaje l\u00fadico en su vida diaria\u201d, dijo Meza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Los padres primero<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group bb-st-wrap is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-large bb-st-float-l\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/borregobasic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/session-fall-2024.jpg\" alt=\"Latino Family Literacy Project parents holding their certificates on stage at the end of a session, October 2024\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Se entregar\u00e1n certificados al finalizar el semestre de oto\u00f1o de 2024.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El eje central del proyecto es un enfoque transformador: empoderar a los padres biling\u00fces para que desempe\u00f1en un papel fundamental en la educaci\u00f3n temprana de sus hijos. Mediante actividades pr\u00e1cticas y sesiones de aprendizaje grupal, los padres desarrollan habilidades esenciales de lectoescritura y establecen rutinas de lectura con sus hijos incluso antes de que comiencen el preescolar. Estos h\u00e1bitos tempranos preparan a los ni\u00f1os para ingresar a la escuela con ventaja, fomentando tanto la confianza como la curiosidad por aprender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las investigaciones demuestran que la educaci\u00f3n temprana es fundamental. Programas como el de BASIC capacitan a los padres para aprovechar este per\u00edodo crucial, asegurando que sus hijos est\u00e9n mejor preparados para el \u00e9xito acad\u00e9mico y el aprendizaje a lo largo de la vida. Con su ambiente estimulante, dise\u00f1ado tanto para el aprendizaje como para el juego, el Centro demostr\u00f3 ser el lugar perfecto para fomentar la conexi\u00f3n entre padres e hijos, al tiempo que apoya el desarrollo educativo.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"bb-st-roster\">\n\t<h3>Gracias a<\/h3>\n\t<ul>\n\t\t<li>Fundaci\u00f3n Dr. Seuss<\/li><li>Fundaci\u00f3n de San Diego<\/li><li>Teresa West, directora del centro infantil<\/li><li>Leslie Greathouse, Directora del Centro para Personas Mayores<\/li><li>ApSeed<\/li><li>Amigos de la Biblioteca de Borrego Springs<\/li><li>Linda Stanley<\/li><li>Estudiantes voluntarios de la escuela secundaria Borrego Springs<\/li><li>Francisco Ram\u00edrez<\/li><li>El personal de LFLP y la Junta Directiva de BASIC<\/li>\n\t<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large bb-st-hero\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/borregobasic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/impact-report.jpg\" alt=\"The Our Super Team page of the LFLP impact report, with portraits of Eddie Rivera, Martha Deichler, Irma Rivera and Samanta Vazquez\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">El equipo, seg\u00fan el informe de impacto del proyecto.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">De cara al oto\u00f1o de 2025, las familias podr\u00e1n contar con la continuaci\u00f3n del Proyecto Latino de Alfabetizaci\u00f3n Familiar, que ofrecer\u00e1 a\u00fan m\u00e1s oportunidades para fomentar la lectoescritura y fortalecer los lazos comunitarios.
