The decision has been made that I am going to do something withe helping children.
First and foremost I need a good name. This part is not something I am good at. Anyone have an ideas?
First I would like to make a fedral packet of information about all programs avaiable after a women gives birth. I would imagine that the packet would be given to a women when she gets her dicharge papers at the hospital. A staff memeber would go over the information with the women informing her of what is out there.
Next I would like to do something to increase the funding of Youth in Need/Head Start. I need to look more into what they do now and see what needs to be improved or changed. At this point I just know they need more funding to take more children.
I also want to increase the amount of money avaible to families who do not have a Head Start or Youth in Need in their hometown area so they can get their children in daycare.
Doing this will allow parent's to be able to work a full time job, the children to get a good start on their education, and to make sure that the children are at least getting one healthy meal a day (I would like to make sure breakfast, two snacks, and lunch are served to the children in child care for a full day).
What do you guys think?
