To the editor:
On behalf of Aroostook County Action Program (ACAP), we announce the Week of the Young Child, April 13-19. This is a time to recognize the needs of young children and thank the adults involved in their education and care. Parents, teachers, caregivers and other adults play important roles in the lives of young children, and Week of the Young Child celebrates their efforts. We can show our support for early learning in our community by promoting early literacy programs, thanking teachers who care for our children, and working to ensure that our public policies support early learning for all young children. Week of the Young Child is an opportune time to focus our energy, resources and attention on the children of Aroostook County.
