Review for Early Childhood Resource Center, Canton, OH, USA
The Early Childhood Resource Center provides extensive outreach to our community touching the lives of both children and adults. As a YMCA Child Care Director, I saw the the Early Childhood Resource Center provided support for staff training. On several ocassions, staff members came to our center to teach and offer support. Providing low cost memberships to the Production Lab, made it easier for the Teachers to make manipulatives, bulletin boards, or prepare activities for classroom projects.
As the Director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Stark County, I still see the continuation of community support. The BBBS Staff utilize the Production Lab to prepare bulletin boards to post in the YMCA branches, make pieces for projects and activities to do with the children and laminate important items for safe keeping. In the fall, the Resource Center provided a wonderful speaker for a training we held for our Adult Mentors. The quality of the training was top notch and the low cost made it possibile for us to provide. The Resource Center has a wonderful library for the staff to find books to share with the children and also books and CDs that can be incorporated into trainings.
We are very thankful to have the services of the Early Childhood Resource Center available to so many non-profit agencies, schools, and churches.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
I have had the wonderful opportunity to see the benefits of the training personally and with staff members. Throughout the training process, I saw the Teachers grow in their knowledge, independence, and confidence.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
expand the training resources available to the community and expand the Production Lab hours. With the number of people using the Production Lab, a larger facility with expanded space for the Production Lab would be helpful.
