IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE… All children experience a safe, nurturing, and enriching early learning environment that is based on what we know from research about how they develop. Especially in communities facing systemic racism, structural oppression, and other forms of trauma, teachers are equipped to support children and families through stable, nurturing relationships. Purposeful development in language, literacy, social-emotional, and critical thinking skills is available to all children in order to prepare them for a lifetime where they can take advantage of any opportunity they desire. In this world, teacher support occurs in a context of care and empathy. Professional development aligns with what we know about how adults learn and grow, and is tailored to fit teachers’ needs. Training sessions are fun, invigorating, purposeful, and result in real change in classroom practice. Adults in schools make decisions grounded in a bold vision for children’s potential, and constantly seek to learn and grow. Now that's a world we want to live in. Join us!
