Officer Matt Norcross, Salem Police,  Officer Norcross read an original book by Enrichment Music Teacher, Joan Virga, and talked about safety.

Bill Ermer, Palmer Gas & Oil, Bill brought two great books; one by local author-Chris Van Dusen; beautiful illustrations and stories with life messages- and rhyming!

Jamie Santo, Santo Insurance, "What a great morning volunteering at a preschool.  An hour of time reading books and got a dozen smiles from the kids. Had a blast and such a super group kids. Learn more about Success By 6 and Salem Family Resources.  Cindy Jury and her team do such an amazing job making a positive difference in the lives of our youth.  Vision of  Success By 6.  "Every child a successful child".

Carolyn Birr, Children's librarian, youth services, Kimball Library, Atkinson, NH

Stacey Bruzzese, Santo Insurance, ". “Each child was completely engaged in the narrative, eager to participate in the repetitive storylines and willing to predict the outcome of each tale,” noted Bruzzese. “I credit Salem Family Resources for the amazing readiness that each child displayed for not only reading, but active engagement in the activity. I was pleased that my story selections, those that had been favorites of my own children, were overwhelmingly accepted and enjoyed,” Bruzzese concluded.

Michael Delahanty, Superintendent, Salem School District

 John DeBaun, Sr. VP at Pentucket Bank, said "the passion of Salem Family Resources for the welfare and growth of young children is clearly evident. It is a passion which certainly understands and seeks to overcome obstacles, which are always present and ever changing."

We look forward in the months ahead to visits from more community leaders like John to learn more about our programs, the families we serve, and the importance of early learning to a lifetime of positive outcomes for children!

     Salem Roundtable Raises Concerns          of Child Care Affordability,                             Effect on Workforce                      Parents, community leaders, child care/early education providers, and NH State legislators gathered at Salem Family Resources-Success By 6 in Salem, to discuss the challenges working families face due to the high costs of child care in the Granite State. The meeting was held as part of a series of roundtables across New Hampshire sponsored by a coalition of early childhood advocates. "The cost and availability of quality child care is a barrier to parents participation in the NH workforce with low and middle income families grappling with questions over whether they can afford to work," said Amanda Sears, Director of the Campaign for a Family Friendly Economy, and moderator for the discussion. "As our business community, legislature, and Governor look at ways to address NH's workforce shortage they should consider policies that help families with young children afford the care that allows them to participate in our workforce and provide for their families." The cost of child care in New Hampshire now exceeds rent as the largest part of the budget for a typical family with young children. By the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' standard for affordability, only 30.3 percent of Granite State families can afford child care for a new child.  "As a working parent, it is hard to overstate the importance of having accessible, quality child care," said Dan Santos, a Salem parent. "At one point we were paying close to $2,600 a month, I mean that's more than our mortgage. A substantial portion of our income goes to child care, we can't afford to put anything in a 401(k). While it's a real struggle to pay, we are committed to quality early childhood education. My oldest child has absolutely benefited from having quality care at The Learning Cooperative of Salem Family Resources-Success By 6 and is now thriving in first grade."                                        A recent poll conducted by The Feldman Group shows that 80% of the New Hampshire electorate supports increased access to affordable, quality child care.                                                                        The Campaign for a Family Friendly Economy is advocating for family friendly policies that help Granite Staters make ends meet and be there for their families when they need to be including fixing our broken child care system, providing guaranteed earned sick days, funding the Family Medical Leave program and lifting wages.

           Congresswoman Ann Kuster,              Early Childhood Rountable Discussion at                   Salem Family Resources                    with NH Leaders in Early Childhood.   U.S. Rep. Ann McLane Kuster, NH, held a roundtable discussion with NH stakeholders at Salem Family Resources to discuss their work, and to announce her support for federal legislation to increase access to childcare and early childhood education.  The discussion also provided Kuster with a chance to hear from SFR parents, Jen Trela and Dan Santos, and advocates about how Congress can help support working families with young children, so their thoughts can be included in the Congresswoman's forthcoming "Working Families Agenda."
