We're just one week away! ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’œ

Language is more than communication. It's identity. It's belonging. It's family. It's how children connect with the world around them.

Join us on Zoom Tuesday, June 23, 12-2 p.m. CST, for the next installment of the First 8 Years Speaker Seriesโ€”Two Languages, One Child: Understanding Identity, Language, and Learning.

Our guest keynote speaker, Samina Hadi-Tabassum, is the Senior Academic Director at Dominican University and a leading voice on bilingual education, language development, cultural identity, and educational equity.

โœจ Samina will share practical strategies and insights to help educators, providers, advocates, and community leaders better support multilingual children and families.
