Review for Chatham County Partnership for Children, Pittsboro, NC, USA

Rating: 5 stars

The Executive Director has her eyes and ears open to the needs in the local community. She is very sensitive to the current trends in in childcare and keeps community partners engaged and ready to respond to the needs of our children.

The advantage of the program is that operators and parents are taught intervention that can be rooted in the community.
