Trusted Advisor Grant
We are so excited to announce that we received a grant from the Michigan Department of Education to work with Trusted Advisors in certain communities to spread awareness and engage around the following three issues: Early Literacy, Early Childhood Services and Protective Factors. The communities with whom we will be working for the next few months are: Spanish-speaking families, fathers and teen parents. Please let us know if you would like to support this work. Please review the feedback we have gathered from these groups so far. There are numerous suggestions and strategies for all of early childhood to better serve families.
