NAEYC

I have worked side by side with the NAEYC organization for numerous years.  They have only improved the quality of life for the program that I look over and the lives of our children.  As we wrote a letter to the leaders in Washington, NAEYC has a link where they have already prepared a letter to our congressional leaders separated into three different parts.  Looking below is how they are listed in order in the letter:

a.       Provide grants to states to accelerate their work, expanding access and improving quality for prekindergarten programs.

b.      Create Early Head Start-child care partnerships to raise the quality of child care and expand access for infants and toddlers in programs meeting Early Head Start standards.

c.       Voluntary support for families that promotes positive parent-child interaction, healthy child development and family self-sufficiency.

NAEYC has taken a stand and we should join in with this project.  Advocating for the improvement of early childhood education programs is the ultimate goal for any persons involved in this field.  I am so thankful for all the hard work that NAEYC and all of their supporters do to advocate for all of us.  I have attached the link that you can go to and attach your name to the letter to our congressional leaders.

  1. It's great how NAEYC is advocating for quality early education programs and care. Did the website say how NAEYC plans to use the the funding to improve access and improve quality? What part do you plan in working with NAEYC?
