*Find Your Roar *Advocacy Trainings

Dear Friend,

Science tell us that what happens between birth to 3 --when a baby's brain
grows the fastest than any other time in life-- lays the foundation for the
rest of a child’s life. New Jersey needs policies that support parents with
young children during this time of rapid development to unlock the
potential of every child in New Jersey to grow up healthy, safe and educated
*.* But to make change for babies, state leaders need to hear from parents!

*Do you know a parent, guardian or grandparent of a child ages 0 to 5
willing to commit to being a voice for what young children need?*Invite
them to participate in a training that will help them: understand the
system and strengthen their skills to tell their story to policymakers.
While networking and bonding with other parents facing similar issues, this
training will help them grow into advocates to make the needed changes for
babies in our state!
