Education

The Education Policy Task Force was established in 2008. Our first project will be to conduct research and advocacy around the impact of preschool on the correctional system, and related issues in early childhood education.

TASK FORCE GOALS FOR 2009

Curriculum modifications that increase character education from the preschool level thereby decreasing bullying and other violent behaviors in young children.
Funding to establish additional accredited preschool opportunities.
Funding to train & educate all funded early childhood education providers whether private or public.
Opportunities to stimulate parental involvement.

A list of upcoming meetings is available on the MASW Calendar page. A list of related web sites is available on the MASW Links page.
