November is National Native American Heritage Month, and the work of First Things First is rooted in a profound respect for tribal sovereignty. Arizona is home to 22 federally recognized tribes, and 19 of those tribes partner with us to prioritize and improve early childhood development, learning and health in their communities.
First Things First will have sessions throughout the month of November that explore how child care is being established in tribal communities, how children thrive in quality interactions in child care settings and how tribal colleges are supporting early childhood.
Our online events are free and designed to provide a platform for dialogue, education and engagement on these important topics.
