Supporting English-speaking Children and Families in the Gaspé and Magdalen Islands

Title
Supporting English-speaking Children and Families in the Gaspé and Magdalen Islands
Abstract
Bright Beginnings is an adapted approach to supporting English-speaking children and families in the Gaspé and Magdalen Islands. It originated through a collaboration between CASA, CAMI and VGPN who began to work with regional and local partners to better adapt programs and services to support English- speaking children 0 to 5 years old and their families. This approach has been adopted by the CHSSN as a provincial framework for English- speaking communities.
