WK 8 Professional Hopes and Goals

    One hope of mine when I think about working with young children and families is that all families be treated the same and be respected, appreciated and serviced to the fullest. When we as early childhood professionals come in contact with families of diversity,we should make sure they are taken care of , their voices are heard and their needs are met.
    One goal that I would like to set for the early childhood field related to issues of diversity, equity and social justice is that when I am put in the place to serve that young child and/or their family, I do it with their needs at hand, as well as communicate with other early childhood professionals, if other resources are needed.
     I would like to say "Thank You", to all of the dedicated early childhood professionals that I have grown to respect, appreciate and trust throughout this course as well as others courses that we have taken together. I would like to wish you all the best of luck and if there is anything that I can do to help one of you, please feel free to contact me.  Thanks and Good Luck!

  4. Lori,
    I totally agree, respect is of the utmost importance. When we make families feel included and ensure that their needs are met to the best of our abilities then when say that we embrace diversity. It also helps to have other resources for those families when it involves areas that we are not able to assist them such as medical care.
