I am a member of the Junior League of Champlain Valley and we are hosting an evening panel event to engage local communities in a discussion on the documentary film series, "The Raising of America: Early Childhood and the Future of Our Nation." The film segment being shown examines issues and initiatives related to access to early childcare broadly in America. The viewing will include the signature hour of the film, followed by discussion led by a panel of experts, including: Representative Ann D. Pugh, VT State Legislature; Anna Gebhardt, Let's Grow Kids; and Lisa Guerrero, Early Childhood Professional Development Specialist.

The goal of the event is to increase awareness around challenges faced by young families, shine a light on implications of existing early childcare systems, and explore local areas of opportunity.

I hope that you will consider joining me at this important, FREE event! For more information and to sign up, you can visit our website: http://www.jlcv.camp7.org/event-2819288
