This paper presents the theoretical-methodological paths and results of the study on assessment of the impact of the First School Program of Belo Horizonte's Municipal Education Network over the families of children that were enrolled in the Unidade Municipal de Educação Infantil (Municipal Unit of Early Childhood Education) - UMEI - Carlos Prates - Danielle Mitterrand in 2004. The survey collected data on the situation of children and their families in 2004, when UMEI was inaugurated, and in 2008, when the fieldwork was carried out. The empirical data made it possible to assess the impact of UMEI in the children's family income and budget, hygiene habits, health, and cognitive development.

Keywords : Public Policies; Program Assessment; First School Program; Early Childhood Education.
