Families are some of a child’s most important literacy partners!

We were proud to have our Early Childhood Education Director, Tia Thompson, participate in the Literacy and Justice for All Annual Collaborative Meeting, where Atlanta Children’s Day Shelter was highlighted for our strong family involvement and the ways we incorporate literacy into family engagement events. Tia joined Nathan Thompson, Crystal Grimes and Diana Bacon of the Rollins Center for a conversation about strengthening family engagement and helping families become active partners in their children’s literacy development. When families and educators work together, children have an even stronger foundation to learn, grow and thrive. Building Pathways. Building Hope.
