Professional Hopes and Goals

One hope that you have when you think about working with children and families who come from diverse backgrounds.

When I think about working with children and families who come from diverse backgrounds, I hope that will continue to remember and apply all that I have learned throughout this course. I hope that I will continue to make children and families feel welcomed. I hope I provide an environment that incorporates culture from all backgrounds and I provide a program environment where everyone feels as though they belong.

One goal you would like to set for the early childhood field related to issues of diversity, equity, and social justice.

My goal that I have set for myself is to take what I have learned and share it to my staff and childcare directors that work for me. This course has made a strong impact on me and taking what I have learned and bringing it back to my staff and my programs will have a huge impact on my community as a whole.

 A brief note of thanks to your colleagues

I have learned a lot from this course from the readings and resource videos, but especially from the discussion posts and interactions with my colleagues. I truly appreciate everyone’s opinion, ideas, questions, thoughts and advice. Without my colleagues, this course would not have been such a success, so thank you all for everything!
