Resources and Intensive Supports for Children Ages 0-5
Children's Advocate is a publication by Action Alliance for children. It brings information and inspiration to parents and early education advocates to support their development as social actors and leaders -- creators of change. Experts cite parent engagement as a critical element of improved school outcomes, increased math and science literacy levels, nutrition and disease prevention, and effective public health interventions on vaccinations. Parents are the key to moving the needle forward in every civic area that concerns children regardless of race, ethnicity or socioeconomic level.
