| Description |
The theme of this year’s Symposium is The Dance of the Diversity: Meeting the Unique Needs of Every Child. This gathering provides an opportunity for parents, educators, caregivers and anyone who works with young children to gain knowledge, perspective, practical skills and tools for supporting all young children. Diversity is much more than a discussion *of race. It includes everything from special needs, learning styles, family structures and so much more. We expect you will walk away with many hands-on activities and ideas to use immediately with the children in your classes and homes.
