FFN Appreciation Week: September 8-13
We're thrilled to celebrate Family, Friend, and Neighbor (FFN) Appreciation Week, recognizing the crucial role of over 5 million FFN caregivers who look after 11.5 million children annually. This week, following National Grandparents’ Day, we honor these caregivers, including grandparents, aunts, and neighbors, who provide essential, often unpaid care for young children.
Join us in acknowledging their invaluable contribution and raising awareness. For more resources and information, visit the FFN Appreciation Week webpage (https://homegrownchildcare.org/ffnappreciationweek/).
