Early Childhood Education Awareness Month

On Friday, January 15th, nearly 300 children, teachers, parents and advocates marched in support of early childhood education awareness month at the YWCA of Minneapolis.

YWCA president and CEO Becky Roloff began the event:

Parents just want a quality education for their children, and we don't deny parents education for their children if their child is a fourth grader. But if that child is 3 or 4 years old, and their parent cannot afford it, they do not have access to quality early childhood education. We want this state to remain great, and for every child to have the opportunity to succeed with their education."
