About Us
Who We Are
The Target Eight Advisory Council, Inc. has been in existence since 1971, a non-profit created in part to help migrant farmworkers with childcare and community resources.
How We Have Grown
Beginning with a head start program in the early seventies that is now the location of the Orange Cove Day Care, Target Eight branched out with the Julia A. Lopez Child Development Center in 1997, named after the Executive Director’s mother. Both centers continue to improve their facilities with renovations, and innovations, new play structures, new tech, and, occasionally, new staff members.
Teachers Are Our Best Resource
Many of the teachers and staff of the Orange Cove Day Care have decades of experience, and they have been with the program for many years, exemplifying the dedication, commitment, and care for their job, serving the community and enriching the development of the children of Orange Cove and outlying areas.
