In this day and age, ’evolution’ is all around us. For example, the cars we drive have transformed into vehicles that can navigate us to our destinations, and in some cases, even drive themselves. Consider technology: pagers, car phones, pay phones—these modes of telecommunication have evolved into mobile devices and tablets that allow us to chat anywhere, with anyone, face-to-face!
The concept I appreciate most about evolution is the fact that it often leads to improvement. I am proud to say that when I think about Child360 over this previous year, ’evolution’ is characteristic of our journey; we are making progress in an evolving landscape, and in synchronicity evolving as an organization to better the lives of our Nation’s families, children, and the educators who nurture their development each and every day.
As Child360 has evolved as an organization over the last 14 years, we are revolutionizing the early learning landscape with the way we support children, their families, early educators, and the community at large. We’ve created professional development programs that support early educators who want to work with children with exceptional needs; we’ve expanded our scope and reach to serve children ages 0-3 because studies have proven that critical moments of brain development occur from birth. And, as we continue to advocate locally and nationally for more early learning investments, policy-makers, businesses, and key stakeholders are responding to our request to support our earliest learners. However, our work is only beginning.
The early learning landscape is evolving, we are evolving, and the early education community needs us more than ever. Join us in our commitment to nurture the journeys of our youngest children. Your partnership cultivates change that extends beyond the ordinary. Your partnership aids in the evolution of the workforce. The evolution of the families we serve. The evolution of our children. And the evolution to a better tomorrow.
