Description |
No Small Matter is a feature-length documentary film and national engagement campaign that brings public attention to this vital question by sharing powerful stories and stunning truths about the human capacity for early intelligence and the potential for quality early care and education to benefit America’s social and economic future. This 75 minute film reveals how our country is raising its youngest citizens, why making the most of this time in their lives is so crucial, and most importantly, what we can do to change the perception of when learning begins. This film will help attendees understand child development in the early years and the importance of relationships and experiences in brain development.
Following the viewing of the film, experts in child development will lead an interactive discussion with audience members related to the importance of early development on later academics and the impact of poverty and trauma on young children. Attendees will leave with new insights into what is necessary to support our youngest learners.
