 Cultural and Linguistic Responsiveness for 
Whole Child Development and Learning

This is the second of three 2015-16 professional development opportunities for those who work with young children, birth through third grade, and their families in the Omaha area.

The keynote, "Why Diversity Matters: Culturally Responsive Education That Nurtures the Whole Child!" will be delivered by Dr. Tonia Durden, an assistant professor and early childhood extension specialist in the Department of Child, Youth and Family Studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
