I am a Family Advocate at Childcare Network of Evanston Early Head Start Program. I have been with the agency for 2 years, but worked in the social service field for many years. I have a bachelor’s of science in Psychology and a minor in Women’s studies from Western Michigan University. I enjoy working with CNE because it is such a great organization that helps so many families and children in the surrounding communities in so many ways. CNE believes in providing children, parents, and teachers with the tools needed to build a solid educational foundation so that every child is ready to succeed in the classroom and beyond. Not only does CNE provide childcare we have home visiting, hearing and vision screenings, and many other social services that help to support the whole family.

My son gets speech and physical therapy. His language continues to improve--I'm so proud. I'd like a futon for the therapists to use when they come. More
