Sixty percent of Louisiana children begin kindergarten behind their peers and children who begin school behind generally remain behind. Significant investments are needed to increase and improve access to quality early care and education for Louisiana’s children to best prepare them for success in school and in life.
Learn more about the need to invest in quality early care and education experiences for our youngest Louisianans by visiting policyinstitutela.org.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO KNOW!
Nursemaid's Elbow (also known as Pulled Elbow, Radial Head Dislocation, or Elbow Subluxation) is a common minor injury which affects children under 5 years.
Pulled elbow is a partial dislocation of the elbow. It's when the lower arm (radius) becomes partially dislocated of its normal position at the elbow joint. It occurs when a child is pulled/lifted by one hand or wrist, or swung around in a circle in play. It can occasionally occur after a fall.
