Episode 46 - Family Peer Ambassadors

Since Fall 2019, DECAL has had a group of volunteers working in their communities to share information with families about the resources available in our state. Our DECAL Family Peer Ambassadors are fathers, mothers, grandparents, foster parents, and other kinship caregivers of young children. They serve as leaders in their community, providing families of young children with information about child development and strategies they can use to support their children’s school readiness along with different resources available to families of young children. This month (September 2024) the program is celebrating it’s Fifth Birthday! Joining us today are Jenny Semendy, DECAL’s Child and Family Development Training Specialist, and one of our Family Peer Ambassadors: Ebony Tolbert from Atlanta.
