A few weeks ago, NBC's Kelly Clarkson Show awarded an Educare Long Beach (ELB) teacher, Mom Khit, with a brand-new car as part of honoring her for Teacher Appreciation Week/Mother's Day and Red Nose Day. As one of the founding ELB partners committed to ensuring all children receive high-quality care and education from the moment they are born to the day they enter kindergarten, UNITE-LA was so excited to see this ELB teacher receive recognition she deserves. Watching this video really is worth a few minutes of your time as it is bound to put a big smile on your face.

Educare Los Angeles at Long Beach works to increase access to high-quality early learning across Southern California. The school serves as a hub for modeling how early learning programs can provide quality early childhood education, partner with families, and advocate for education practice and policy.
