Community members there are building a template for early childhood success in Daviess County that will be a shining example of what local communities across Kentucky and the nation can achieve when local innovation and civic pride unites in the best interest of children. The group is working to ensure that all children receive access to high quality, voluntary early childhood education. By convening local leaders, parents, educators, and advocates, we can ensure that all parents in Daviess County and beyond have such an option for their young children. Together we can ensure that all children receive the strong start that they deserve, and that parents in the local workforce have access to safe, affordable care for their children throughout the workday.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”19910″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” link=”https://prichard-backup.com/groundswell/”][vc_column_text single_style=”” el_class=”postscript3″]
