TRAINING OPPORTUNITY
Would you like to learn the specific messaging behind the Talking is Teaching campaign? We are pleased to hold a virtual, community-wide Trusted Messenger Training on Tuesday, March 22, from 1-2:30pm, open to any individual working in any sector.
This training will provide information on how the campaign works and what you can do to help children in Kalamazoo County achieve early literacy. Whether you are a parent or have young grandchildren, work at a bank or grocery store, a non-profit, or any business that interacts with families - this training is for you! Join our foundational partners at the Kalamazoo Public Library, the Kalamazoo Literacy Council, KRESA Head Start, Early On and Seeds for Success, KCReady4s and St. Luke's Diaper Bank, and learn how you can share the message of the campaign - no matter where you are or what you do! RSVP HERE.
