| Impact Report | As a result of childcare education in the county, the Lea County Extension Service has become a recognized source for educational programming and training. As the home economist, I have begun networking with other county, regional and state agencies to provide training and educational opportunities for the childcare givers in the county. Some of the agencies that we are currently working with are the Lea County Family Center, Economic Development Corporation of Lea County, New Mexico Department of Health and Family Resource and Referral, Inc. In working with these agencies, 27% of the providers in the area, have returned to the annual workshop for educational credits towards their license. In the last four years the childcare givers in Lea County have come to the extension service for training. Twenty-six percent of the providers attended two or more programs provided by the Lea County Extension Service. These programs were provided within their day care, I CAN nutrition education programs, or general programming requested by a licensing agency like Family Resource and Referral, Inc. |
