Parents As Teachers

We just heard that a common application submitted to Mile High United Way by the Colorado Parent and Child Foundation was funded to expand Parents As Teachers programs!

This multi-year grant includes Parenting Place.  Executive Director Will Kropp noted, “Thank you Mile High United Way!  Planning is underway to establish our Parents As Teachers program in Boulder County.  This is just another proven way that we are able to prevent the incidence of child abuse and neglect in our community, as well as increase the school readiness of our youngest kiddos.”
