Welcome to Putnam County Early Learning Program. Putnam County Early Learning Program provides a safe, supportive, vibrant educational environment for children 3–5 years of age and their parents. The comprehensive program addresses all areas of a child’s development: physical, mental, social, and emotional. Children and families receive a broad range of educational, nutritional, preventive health, and social services. We engage caregivers and children to address educational needs in a way that promotes long-term family sustainability. Our goal is to foster a lifelong love for learning for each of the children we serve.
