Sonia and Mara, representatives from the Parents as Teachers program, stopped by Monday to fill up their sleigh with holiday cheer – clothing, educational toys, books, and other children’s goodies contributed by generous patrons and library staff. Lissette Maldonado, P.A.T. Program Supervisor wished to share these words with the library community, “I am so thrilled and grateful with the gifts’ outcome. Thank you so much for your help, effort and support…” All of the donated items will be distributed to 48 children in the P.A.T. Bethlehem program.
Parents as Teachers builds strong communities, thriving families and children who are healthy, safe and ready to learn by matching parents and caregivers with trained professionals who make regular personal home visits during a child’s earliest years in life, from prenatal through kindergarten.
