Sheridan Way Family Center was established to provide access to early learning activities for children, and health and family strengthening services. One goal of the Center is that children ages 0-5 in the Ventura community be better prepared to succeed in school.
Since parents are their child's first teachers, we look forward to working with you to provide enrichment and learning opportunities during your child's important developmental years.
We hope you enjoy our services and find them helpful.
Center Hours: Monday-Friday 7:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m.
