The three state and locally that appealed to
me were:
The Head Start program. This program appeals to me for the simple fact of reaching out to children in less fortunate backgrounds. The Head start program targets my passion for the simple fact of helping children that struggle and come from low economic states. The second organization that I found was the Louisiana Early Childhood Association. It is an association that is full of resources for teachers to collaborate together and gain insights that are beneficial in the classroom. The third organization that I chose was a local early headstart program. It targets children that are coming out of early intervention programs but who are to young to go directly into Head Start. These programs fuel my passion for the simple fact of giving each child a chance depsite their families economic status.
