Twenty Years Strong…Recently, I spent part of a day going through old files as we began to prepare for our 20th Anniversarycelebration. I came across one of the original applications for Smart Start funding for Wayne County. As Iread through the application, I was struck by a number of things. The lack of quality child care in the countywas first and foremost. There was an immediate need for the improvement in businesses and homes thatprovided care for our youngest citizens. Secondly, I was amazed at the number of organizations andindividuals that were working together, not only to apply for funding, but to improve the welfare of children inour County. Businesses, local government, community organizations, and individual community leaderspresented a united front of support for both the Partnership and our children. Twenty years down the road one feature has certainly improved, largely due to the fact that the other has remained the same. We can still pride ourselves as a community that is working together to provide a better living environment for our children. Through the multitude of individuals and organizations who have supported us through our programs and fundraisers, a huge collaboration is still present in our organization. Such collaboration has led to the existence of much better child care — as deemed by the number of children in 4– and 5-star rated facilities in our county. And, it also has led to the continued attention on other issues such as early childhood literacy, poverty, health and the need for infant and toddler child care. Our twentieth year has been marked by the continued expansion of services in our community. Our Early Childhood Resource and Referral (CCR&R) program continues to serve the child care community on a regular basis providing technical assistance and staff development for professionals. The Incredible Years programhas expanded its reach to Latino families with the help of funds from the NC Children’s Trust Fund. TheHealth Service Team has been rejuvenated with the addition of a new Health Consultant.With funds from the General Assembly, the North Carolina Pre-Kindergarten program was able to add an additional site andclassrooms, bringing the total served to 566 four-year olds. OurSafe Kids program was recognized as the Coalition of the Year bySafe Kids North Carolina. Its continued emphasis on childhoodsafety, the proper use of child restraints, and use of the car safetydiversion program was recognized by the state and local Boardalike. The Parents as Teachers program expanded its number offamilies and was designated a national Blue Ribbon Affiliate for itsoutstanding service and quality of implementation.Our emphasis on early childhood literacy continued with thefunding of the READ Wayne program at the Wayne County Public Library and its Raising a Reader parenteducation program. The Dolly Parton Imagination Library was implemented and over 2,700 Wayne Countychildren under 5 years of age have been registered to receive a free book each month through the program.Our second annual Touch-a-Truck event reflected the collaboration of many individuals, businesses andorganizations in our community. Once again, over 2,000 kids and their parents enjoyed a day of learningand fun with various types of vehicles at the Wayne Regional Fairgrounds. The services the Partnership continues to offer to the children, families and care givers of our County continue to evolve and expand after twenty years of existence. As we move into our third decade, our commitment to the development and welfare of our youngest citizens remains strong. The future of our organizations continues to be bright. Charles C. Ivey, Executive Director Joseph E. Setzer, Chairman, Board of Directors
