"You see the transformative change by bringing parents together. The focus is not on having them fit the norm, but on having us learn together." Thank you, Dr. Reem Khamis-Dakwar, for this perspective on LENA Start! A great listen from SLTea Time: bit.ly/3DmvJlE

Great things are happening! We would like to say a big thank you to New Castle County Executive Matt Meyer for awarding us a $6,000 grant to recruit diverse volunteer readers and cover site fees for underserved childcare centers.

Conversational turns, or back-and-forth exchanges, are crucial. Check out a Zoom info session on Tuesday to learn how LENA Start is helping caregivers focus on early talk with its 'talk pedometer' technology. Sign up at readalouddelaware.org/lenastart #readalouddelaware #lenastart
