Abstract	This paper presents the design, underlying theory, and primary outcomes of the Multiple Model Preschool Program (MMPP), a three-year longitudinal early childhood intervention program which focused simultaneously on the three dimensions of parental involvement, home-school relations, and individualized education. In both homes and schools at three different geographic sites, the MMPP examined the effects of a multi-dimensional program on the growth of 134 low-income children identified at age three as potential academic high-risks. Results in the area of cognitive functioning of the children, as measured by a battery of standardized aptitude and achievement tests, revealed significant gains of a magnitude which supports the MMPP approach as a fruitful one for increasing the likelihood of academic success for this population.
