Do You Have a Child Under 8 Years Old?

AND

Does the Child Have a Disability (Special Needs)?

OR

Do You Speak a Language Other than English?

We invite eligible parents/ caregivers to participate in a feedback session about early childhood care and education, community resources, and initiatives for families. Families will receive a $40 gift card for participating.

The Nevada Institute for Child Research and Policy is currently working to gather stories from families about their experiences with their young children in order to know how to best strengthen Nevada’s early childhood systems. 

They are conducting focus groups/family feedback sessions and interviews to gather feedback from parents/caregivers of children under 8 years old who either have disabilities or special needs, and/or families who speak a language other than English. 

If you are interested in participating, sign up here.
