2020 Kiwanis Read Across Georgia Video
Young Children Priority One
Young Children Priority One (YCPO) is an ongoing community service program of Kiwanis International that addresses the needs of children age 0–5. All clubs are encouraged to carry out at least two YCPO projects per calendar year, though many clubs are able to do more—serving children, families and communities. Young Children Priority One focuses on four key areas:
- maternal and child health
- child care and development
- parent education and support
- safety and pediatric trauma
What: Kiwanis Read Across Georgia Day
When: Thursday, January 21, 2021
Where: At a local elementary, Pre-K, or Head Start center in your community
Why: To promote reading and to try to help children read on grade level before they finish the 3rd grade. If a student isn’t on grade-level in reading by the 3rd grade, probability is high for a student not to graduate from high school. We will be celebrating Kiwanis’ 105th anniversary as well.
