Parents as Teachers, with support from the Gateway Center for Giving, held a Community Action Forum on Investing in Early Childhood on Thursday, March 12. As a longtime advocate of the benefits of providing early childhood education, I was honored to be invited as a roundtable speaker at the event.
This forum focuses on action steps for investing in quality early childhood development for all children, including a roundtable discussion with early childhood leaders, the release of a Discussion Guide and Action Toolkit to help participants implement policies and programs in their own communities, and breakout group discussions to continue and deepen the conversation.
