Born Learning Program Continues Thanks to First 5
San Bernardino, CA – First 5 San Bernardino granted Arrowhead United Way (AUW) $100,000 to continue the Born Learning program. The premise of Born Learning is that children absorb information in the early stages of development. The program increases awareness in parents/caregivers and helps them engage their young children in learning. The program also provides information to parents about the health needs of young children.
AUW will be providing Born Learning workshops to the community within the next year by partnering with local non-profit organizations such as, San Bernardino Adult School, Big Bear Community Health Systems and San Bernardino Housing Authority. AUW also offers community wide Born Learning workshops.
The next Born Learning workshop will be:
□ Monday August 23rd, 2010 from 5:30 pm to 6:30pm
Arrowhead United Way
646 North D street, San Bernardino CA 92401
□ Tuesday August 31st, 2010 from 5:30 pm to 6:30pm
Arrowhead United Way
646 North D street, San Bernardino CA 92401
