Leave a comment

In November, 2013, the Nebraska Chapter was awarded a one year grant to Build Bridges between Home Visitation and Pediatrics in Nebraska. This grant follows a successful Phase I of the Building Bridges project in 2013, where the chapter made connections among Early Childhood Professionals and pediatricians. The grant will run through 2014.
