Spotlight on 0-5 Years-old Social-Emotional Milestones
One of the great pieces that came out of this work (and through a partnership with our graphic designer at the ISD) is a poster that is now being shared within the community. It highlights milestones birth through age five, and includes a QR code that links directly to our Great Start Collaborative website so that concerned parents are able to fill out the free ASQ (Ages and Stages Questionnaire). It also references the CDC's Milestone Tracker app, which allows parents to check on their child's development by easily accessing their phone.
Current locations that are displaying the poster include : all Jackson District Libraries, ABC Academy locations, Family Service & Children's Aid, Phoenix Academy, Early Impressions, Jackson County Health Department (WIC, Immunization Clinic, Early On, Smiles on Wheels, Maternal Infant Health Program), YMCA, and the Salvation Army.
If you would like a hardcopy, please send a request to Christina Blackwell at christina.blackwell@jcsid.org.
