Strong early childhood programs = stronger Rhode Island communities 💙 Strolling Thunder highlights the impact these programs have on children, families, and our future. #EarlyChildhoodRI #StrollingThunderRI
@Rep_Magaziner @NatlHeadStart Thank you, Congressman Magaziner!
Met with @NatlHeadStart to talk about the importance of early childhood education. Head Start programs give kids a strong start and help working families succeed. I’ll keep fighting to make sure every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.
In Rhode Island, early childhood programs support families every day—from learning to health to family services. Strolling Thunder helps shine a light on why that matters. #RIKids #StrollingThunderRI
Strollers rolling, voices rising 💙 Strolling Thunder is coming—and Rhode Island families are part of the movement supporting early childhood programs. #StrollingThunderRI #EarlyChildhoodRI
