The Puerto Rican Action Board's (PRAB) humble beginnings consisted of modest volunteer efforts in 1969 to provide English classes to recently arrived Latinos. When necessary, clients were also assisted with securing a high school equivalency diploma. Two years later, PRAB was incorporated, and by 1974 began to receive funding from the New Jersey State Department of Education for its E.S.L. and G.E.D. programs. Shortly thereafter, funds were secured to establish the first full time, bilingual/multi-cultural Day Care Center for children, ages 2 to 5 in New Jersey funded by the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) providing a unique and much needed multicultural curriculum.
