On Monday, February 10, 2025, members of the Parent, Infant, and Early Childhood (PIEC) Program from the Institute for Innovation & Implementation will be participating in the Maryland State Child Care Association's Evening in Annapolis for Child Care.
- Laura Latta and Kaya Swann, Co-Directors of PIEC, will be in attendance.
- The team will meet with legislators to advocate for general support of childcare, without focusing on specific legislation.
- Dean Postmus supports this opportunity to educate legislators about crucial issues in early childhood education and childcare.
- A primary focus will be highlighting the need for funding PIEC's statewide coordination and data collection activities for Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultation programs.
This engagement aligns with our commitment to advancing early childhood education and support services in Maryland.
