How to Apply
Early childhood years are very important for children and their families. When children experience success in responsive, nurturing programs, they gain essential skills and knowledge for life long learning. When parents experience success, they learn to be confident partners with teachers and strong advocates for their families.For additional information contact:715-343-7539 For information on enrollment, contact:Karen ZdroikEligibilty Recruitment Selection Enrollment Attendance & Health Manager715-343-7536kzdroik@capmail.org
