Better Beginnings Interagency Report – Nov. 2, 2009

The Stay & Play Drop-In sessions are going well. Attendance has increased with many new families coming for the first time this year.

In Sept. 91 families, 121 children attended the sessions.

Oct. numbers aren’t all in yet, but there were more new families and children who attended some of the locations.

We are hoping to run a 8 week Shake-Rattle-Roll program in Minitonas starting the middle of Jan. We are applying to the Chronic Disease Prevention program for funding to run the program. We need funds to buy some equipment and pay rent for the use of the Town Hall.Once we have the equipment, we can run this program at other locations.

Plans are being worked on to start Better Beginnings sessions back at Birch River.
