Mt. Ascutney Prevention Partnership is excited to announce a film screening and panel discussion of The Raising of America on Wednesday, July 20, 6-8pm at the American Legion in Windsor, VT.
This free event is open to the public and will include dinner.
The Raising of America examines the way we look at early child health and development and explores how a strong start for all kids leads not only to better individual life courses (learning, earning, and physical/mental health) but also to a healthier, safer, better educated, and more prosperous and more equitable America.
The U.S. is a can-do nation. So why is child well-being in the U.S. so much worse than in other rich countries? This film interweaves the latest discoveries in neuroscience with the stories of families and communities struggling to provide the nurturing environments all children need to thrive. After the film, a panel discussion will examine the importance of a strong start for all children and how community members can help this process.
Please join us for this event and discussion.
