A New York Summit Centering Children, Families, and Futures
Help Me Grow New York State and Long Island are excited to share the registration link for the Stronger Together Summit, taking place October 17th and 18th at the Uniondale Marriott in Long Island.
Our upcoming Summit is designed for everyone in our community who plays a vital role in shaping early childhood health and education. It is made possible through the incredible collaboration of the Child Care Council of Nassau, Child Care Council of Suffolk, Choice for All, the Long Island Regional Technical Assistance Center for Pre-K & ECE, the Parent Action Coalition of Long Island, and The Long Island Infant Toddler Resource Center. We are deeply grateful for their shared commitment to building a stronger foundation for our youngest learners.
October 17th kicks off with a visioning and action planning day focused on systems building, leadership, and cross-sector collaboration. Designed for community and state leaders, child care center leaders, HMGNY staff, and administrators, this day is ideal for anyone working to improve early childhood systems
October 18th features three tailored educational tracks: one for child care providers to earn OCFS credit, one for physicians and physicians-in-training to earn CME credits and one for families to elevate their voices while building knowledge and leadership skills. Each track offers role-specific professional development and valuable networking opportunities.
CME program jointly provided by Docs for Tots, Northwell Health, and Healthfirst.
