 Early Childhood Connections lunches are a chance for early childhood professionals to talk in an informal environment about issues faced in their agency and brainstorm with each other ways they have problem solved and have used creative solutions to overcome obstacles. Each lunch is structured around a specific topic and any professionals working with children 0-5 and their families in Rock Island County around this topic are welcome to join us! Early Childhood Connections lunches are held the fourth Friday of every month from 12:00-1:00pm at the Early Childhood Coalition/AOK Network office and are capped off at 15 individuals to ensure we are able to share with each other and have a conducive conversation. Lunch will be provided. This community opportunity for networking and problem solving is organized by members of the All Our Kids Early Childhood Network.
To sign up for an Early Childhood Connections lunch please sign up using the RSVP form below or call the AOK Network office at 309/788.9995. Contact us if you have suggestions for future Early Childhood Connections lunches!
March's topic is Advocate-Mobilize for Action. With all of the attention on advocacy we think this will be a great opportunity to meet in a small group setting and have a discussion on what some of our great ideas, questions, and concerns may be around the topic of advocacy. What does this word mean for you and for your agency? Remember, advocating is a great way to make your voice heard, not only with state issues, but in your community and this is a great empowerment tool for the parents you serve as well. We will have some great ideas you can take with you and we hope you will come to share some of your great ideas with us!
