During this podcast, I sat down with early childhood teacher, Alice Hartig, to discuss poverty and her work in the Head Start program. Alice is a knowledgeable and caring provider in the Head Start program in Ohio, helping families maneuver their way out of poverty by providing a "head start" for their children and guidance for the caregivers in those children's lives.
As described on the benefits.gov website: "Head Start is a Federal program that promotes the school readiness of children from birth to age five from low-income families by enhancing their cognitive, social, and emotional development. Head Start programs provide a learning environment that supports children's growth in many areas such as language, literacy, and social and emotional development. Head Start emphasizes the role of parents as their child's first and most important teacher. These programs help build relationships with families that support family well-being and many other important areas."
Listen in on iTunes, Blubrry, or directly from my website as Alice discusses this important resilience-building program.
Peace,

* Every week or so I will be posting links to various episodes from The Healing Place Podcast from 2018 thus far. I am excited to have more therapists, trauma-gurus, and ACES experts lined up over the next few weeks for interviews. I would love to have YOU join me, as well. If you are interested, please send me a private messages through this site and I will send you my podcast interview questions for you to review.
I am a huge fan of lifting one another up as beacons of light for those who are struggling, looking for guidance, or lost in the dark. I would love to offer my podcast as a platform for your voice about your mission and passion. My goal is to provide motivational, inspirational, and healing stories for my listeners.
