The First 1000 Days

The First 1,000 Days explains the science and techniques that build healthy brain architecture during those early year. We get an insiders look at a few of the publicly supported childhood interventions, including In-Home Family Education and Head Start programs. We meet families who are changing their children's lives - despite a family's income - through participation in these services.
