The
early childhood organization I selected to focus on was the National Head Start
Association. This organization’s
objective is to offer all children despite their personal circumstances an opportunity
to receive services that benefit not just the child but the family and
community. The organization’s website it
divided into several divisions. The main
page is full of links to information on recent news, events, news impacting
head start, membership, research, services, advocacy, online store, affiliation
links, alumnus, and features on their upcoming conference in Washington, D.C.
in April. The one thing that I found interesting was the
link they had for parents and advocates to send messages to Congress and
President Obama on suggested ways on sequestration avoidance.
In
tying this organization to this week’s demographic and diversity topic, I must
say that this organization offers their website in Spanish as well as
English. This is showing me that they recognize
and acknowledge that they cater to not just English speaking but Spanish. In looking further into the organization website
I found that they have sought employees that are bilingual to work in programs.
If
you would like to explore this organization’s website the address is www.nhsa.org.
I hope you find it as interesting as I did.
National Head Start Association one of my favorites, excellent post!
ReplyDeleteNational Head Start Association is a great organization. They understand the importance of teaching children and how important it is to develop children at an early age.
