The Children’s Forum Early Learning Quality Initiatives Ambassador Program consists of an established network of early childhood professionals and volunteers who serve as representatives of the Children’s Forum Workforce Initiatives & Programs in their local communities, including T.E.A.C.H. and INCENTIVE$. We are thankful to you Ambassadors, who help increase community outreach and maximize the impact and presence of Forum programs across the state. The valuable information you provide in your monthly Outreach & Activity Reports gives us wonderful stories and highlights that we can share in our annual reporting and testimonials from participants.
If you have any questions or need assistance, please email us at TEACHOutreach@thechildrensforum.com. You can also follow the Children’s Forum programs: Help Me Grow Florida, INCENTIVE$, Children’s Week Florida, the Early Learning Career Center – Thrive By 5, and T.E.A.C.H., on Facebook and Instagram. You can also join our Ambassadors Facebook Group for the latest news. If you are interested in becoming an Ambassador for your early childhood community, please call our Children’s Forum Outreach Team at 850-487-6300.
