In this issue of REACH, we invite you to celebrate the Week of the Young Child, including your own contributions toward ensuring that every child receives the bright start they deserve. We also highlight Autism Awareness & Acceptance Month, reminding us there are many facets that contribute to the well-being of all children.

Did you know that play is an essential foundation of literacy? In this month’s Coach’s Corner, we share a variety of actionable tips for incorporating support for literacy throughout your program environment. And, as always, you’ll find a variety of valuable professional development opportunities and program support information. Thank you for your dedication to Delaware’s children!
