Empowered Community Learning Center

Thank you CDA Council for Professional Recognition for recognizing my work of inclusivity and culturally responsive practices in our Spanish bilingual program in Southwest Detroit. Children learn better when they have a sense of belonging in the classroom and parents are more engaged when they feel welcomed of having staff that can communicate with them in their home language. Bi-Lingual communities bring valuable perspectives that can make great impacts on the children and the communities we serve!
