It's
All About the Children
Dawn
Adamson and Adrianna Austin
Authors
Dawn Adamson and Adrianna Austin present an in-depth
overview of the impact that poverty has on
the development of young children. The purpose
of the book is to deepen the understanding and
broaden the reader's knowledge about the complex
issues surrounding child poverty.
Teaching
and working with at-risk children
and families requires competent and empathic
educators who are informed and trained
to respond effectively to their unique needs.
Educators, professionals
and students alike can appreciate the insightful
compilation of text that will assist in developing
a program for a diverse early childhood environment
and education. The
authors recognize the numerous child advocates and organizations
who continue to pursue policy makers to prioritize
solutions for the eradication of child poverty and
the building of peaceable communities. The
outlined potential encounters and challenges identified
within this book have no demographic boundaries,
nor are they exclusive to those living in poverty.
