Each month, you'll
find all of our dedicated Community Workers at the libraries, preschools, and
faith-based organizations. Here are some highlights of places we've been to and
special events we will be attending. We welcome volunteers who wish to help us
outreach, and suggestions for events where we can reach families with young
children.

Ana
Moreno and volunteers Janet, Alma and Graciela went to the CAT Ice Cream Social on August 3 and met over 200 families.

We went to Back to School Nights at
Castro, Landels, and Monta Loma. Many thanks to volunteers, for your help in reaching
so many new families.

Ones on August 21 and met over 25 new people.

Hadas Keppel and
Yadira Rios also went to the Sunnyvale Childcare
Provider Network to connect and
educate local childcare providers about our services and offerings. We will be
expanding our outreach to home childcare providers in an effort to increase their ability to provide literacy-rich environments for children (more on this coming soon).
