Show #1016
Original Air Date: February 3rd, 2007
Parents and caregivers of young children understand that the early years are important to learning. Yet many aren't sure how to encourage early learning, or feel they don't have time to do what it takes to help their child succeed in school. Many communities are concerned about children coming to school unprepared. Yet these same communities may have difficulty coming together to give parents more choices and children more opportunities.
In response, United Way of the Midlands along with the Nebraska Children and Families Foundation are working to spread the message about the Born Learning campaign, an innovative public engagement campaign that helps parents, caregivers and communities create quality early learning opportunities for young children. The goal of the campaign is to inspire everyone who impacts young children to make the best possible decisions to boost school readiness. Learn more about the campaign and how you can make a difference in a young child's life this week on Consider This....
