The REACH Firm celebrates Black History Month!

Throughout our country's history, Black people have made countless contributions to our society through music, inventions, sports, and early childhood education.

Dear Black Dads - you're welcome here.

Fathers often experience unique barriers that prevent them from feeling welcomed into early childhood spaces. Black men encounter additional challenges as fathers, and they often report feeling othered, not fully accepted in educational spaces, or not even viewed as a parent.

In this article, the authors share five practices that early childhood educators can follow to become culturally competent in building relationships with the Black fathers of children in their schools.

We also acknowledge that being Black signifies more than a color: it encapsulates the history and racial identity of African Americans that cannot be summed up in a social media post - therefore, if you'd like to read more on this topic, you can find it in the 2022 Winter Edition of Young Children, visiting our website, or by clicking the link below:

At the REACH Firm, we know what it is to see a broken chain between the home, school, & outside resources in the world of Early Childhood. We understand all of the time restraints & knowledge for Early Childhood educators, parents, schools, universities, student teachers, and the need for a mediator or facilitator to bridge the gap & connect the dots and make transition easier between each of these. With certified veteran educators on staff, we offer mentorship & training. Just let us know the problem & we’ll offer the solution. We are The REACH Firm and we are here to HELP!
