Mansfield Advocates for Children Will Host an Early Childhood Forum

The event will be held in early April — we have the details.

Mansfield Advocates for Children will host an Early Childhood Forum for parents and caregivers who can learn about Mansfield Advocates for Children and have the opportunity to ask questions about early childhood issues and give feedback in a forum setting.

For the children, they will host Jumpstart for a Day. Kids from birth to eight will work with AmeriCorps college students in stations to experience readings of some of their core storybooks, participate in intentionally educational activities, and enjoy center time activities.

The forum will be held from 4 to 6 p.m. Friday, April 10, at the Mansfield Community Center, 10 S. Eagleville Rd., Mansfield.
