关于我们
Catalyst Family Inc. (formerly Child Development Centers (CDC)) was founded in 1976 to provide learning materials and services to both state-subsidized and private childcare centers. The business quickly expanded to operate the preschool and school-age programs we are known for today. We again experienced rapid growth in the late 1980s and early 1990s when the need for infant/toddler and after-school programs on elementary campuses increased dynamically. Today, our mission, to provide responsive services to the children, families, and communities we serve, is brought to life across four key divisions. Catalyst Kids offers inclusive early childhood education and school-age programs to children from infancy to age 12. Catalyst ExpandEd Learning, in partnership with school districts, provides after-school programs for children TK-8th grade. Catalyst Camps runs screen-free summer day camps for children TK-8th grade. Finally, Catalyst Community provides support and resources to children, families, childcare providers, and communities. Our centers are licensed by the California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division, the agency charged with health and safety reviews of childcare centers. Headquartered in Morgan Hill, Catalyst Kids has regional offices in Morgan Hill, Sacramento, Irvine, and Oxnard, CA.

Communicating with Impact: Catalyst Family Inc. Embraces Smart Brevity At Catalyst Family Inc., we are committed to clear, impactful communication. That’s why we recently sponsored a professional development training on Smart Brevity for all Regional Directors, with participation from our Deputy Directors of Operations, Education, and our COO. Developed by Axios journalists, Smart Brevity is a communication formula that prioritizes essential information, explains its impact, and delivers it in a concise, visual format. By streamlining the way we communicate, we ensure our messages are understood, remembered, and drive action. We are excited to put these learnings into practice—because in today’s fast-paced world, clarity isn’t just valuable; it’s essential. #SmartBrevity #LeadershipDevelopment #EffectiveCommunication #CatalystFamilyInc
