It's week 5 of our video series "Giving Voice to our Values," highlighting the work of JCC early childhood centers, showing the world what good practice, thoughtful decision making, and leading with our values truly looks like. Shout out to all the early childhood leaders making difficult decisions during unprecedented times.
