PREMIER MODEL OF EARLY CHILDHOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR THE AMERICAN INDIAN
COMMUNITY". THE MISSION OF MAICC IS TO ADDRESS THE EARLY CHILDHOOD
NEEDS AND ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT GAP OF AMERICAN INDIAN CHILDREN THROUGH
REVITILIZING LANGUAGE AND CULTURE. MAICC IS THE ONLY AMERICAN INDIAN
DIRECTED AND MANAGED PRESCHOOL FOR NATIVE CHILDREN IN ST. PAUL.
CULTURALLY SPECIFIC EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES GROUNDED IN
CULTURE AND INDIGENOUS LANGUAGE ARE ABSENT IN MAINSTREAM EARLY LEARNING
PROGRAMS FOR AMERICAN INDIAN CHILDREN. AMERICAN INDIAN CHILDREN HAVE
LIMITED ACCESS TO CULTURALLY SPECIFIC EARLY LEARNING AND MANY FAMILIES
LACK THE FINANCIAL STABILITY TO ACCESS QUALITY EARLY LEARNING
OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEIR CHILDREN. MAICC FILLS THAT GAP.
