Child Care Forum Press Release:
Childcare Action Team to Hold Community Forum
Do you have young children or grandchildren? Have you ever worked in childcare or early childhood development? Have you noticed a need for childcare and preschool in our community? We want to hear from all of you!
The Community Childcare Action Team is a group of community members who are concerned about our children, the availability of quality and lasting childcare options for them, and the opportunities for preschool in our community. As one community member recently said, “Children are the center of any community.” If we want to invest in our future, we ought to start by investing in our children.
We will be holding a town-hall-type meeting on Saturday, January 24 from 2-4pm at the Coulee Dam Community Presbyterian Church in Coulee Dam (across from the Tribal Museum). Free trained childcare will be provided at the church.
The team is looking for community members to partner with us as we approach this broad, important subject. Our main areas of focus will be on the need for childcare facilities and additional preschool options. We need your ideas, experiences, concerns and expertise, even if you would not like to be directly involved long-term.
This group is made possible by the support of the Horizons grant program for Grand Coulee. Please RSVP to Kevin Lind at kevinllind@gmail.com or 631-0774 if you plan to attend or have any questions.
