Howard and Evanston Community Center recently celebrated Week of the Young Child, a National Association of Educating Young Children week-long event that:

“…recognize[s] that children’s opportunities are our responsibilities, and to recommit ourselves to ensuring that each and every child experiences the type of early environment at home, at child care, at school and in the community that will promote their early learning.”

Basically, children rock and HECC is committed to providing high quality early education services for children in low-income families of every race, religion, and gender!

*Only 406 ECE programs in Illinois are NAEYC accredited and the Sheila Reynolds Berner Family Center at HECC is proud to be one of them! 

Check out photos of  Music Monday, PJ Thursday, Family Friday, and the WOYC parade! Thank you to guitar hero Nick Davio from Old Town School of Folk Music for the tunes! More photos on Facebook.
