Welcome to October’s edition of the Buzz from the Hub! This month we bring you resources and insights on early childhood education, equity in data, youth engagement, support for parents with disabilities, and much more!
Buzz from the Hub
The CPIR shares news and resources with the Parent Center network and others via our e-newsletter the Buzz from the Hub.
Each Buzz spotlights an issue of importance to Parent Centers, identifies resources on the network’s priority topics, and includes resources Parent Centers can share with the families they serve.
