Today, we hosted our CT Help Me Grow Council! It’s always wonderful to bring together our Early Childhood partners from across Connecticut to collaborate, share ideas, and strategize ways to strengthen developmental monitoring, screening, and connections to referrals and supports for children and families.
Together, we’re working to ensure families have access to the resources and support they need to help every child thrive! Connecticut Office of Early Childhood
