Getting to Know Your International Contacts: Part 2

I explored the alternative website in order to gain understanding on what other countries contribute to the early childhood field.  The Global Children’s Initiative collaborates with different countries to improve the well-being of young children and families.
In Brazil, the Global Initiative works with policyholders and leaders to implement effective policies with the goal to create and sustain good programs. This project uses the science of children’s health and development to help in helping families in Brazil communities. This project also looks to prepare leader grow in the field.
In Santiago, Chile the Global Initiative created a project called “Good Start.”  This initiative is created to help severe health issues in order to improve school attendance; this project looks to include families in education.  Professional development classes are order to help improve the quality of education. The project addresses severe health issues in order to improve school attendance.  
It’s good to see so many countries are creating services for families and children.  There are so many dimensions to early childhood that can go unnoticed.
