Long Beach, CA ~ Long Beach, CA - The City of Long Beach Department of Health and Human Services (Health Department) has announced the launch of its second year of the Parent Informational Workshop series in partnership with the Long Beach Public Library (LBPL). This initiative aims to provide parents and caregivers of children from infancy through 8 years old with valuable information on topics such as early childhood mental health, special education, and early start intervention.
According to Mayor Rex Richardson, these workshops are part of the city's ongoing commitment to supporting the development and well-being of Long Beach's young residents. "We're excited to offer families more opportunities to learn, connect, and grow together through our Parent Informational Workshop series," he stated.
The workshops will be taught by local experts who specialize in various fields of early childhood. They will also serve as a platform for families to connect with resources that can assist them in addressing any developmental concerns they may have about their child. Interested attendees are welcome to attend multiple workshops, and no registration is required.
