It’s time to #ThinkBabies, and #SmartStartNHC wants to hear YOUR STORY!
What is your dream for your child?
What is hard about being a parent?
What supports from friends, family, or organizations have helped you or your child?
What supports do you need?
As part of our work with Think Babies, we are collecting home videos of children birth to age three and their families. For more details and to enter for a chance to win a $500 gift card, click here ow.ly/BNc850Bmmsn
We want you to talk about your baby’s needs and your needs as a parent so that our public officials, our elected leaders, and our community as a whole have a deeper understanding of the issues.

But the industry as a whole was barely profitable even before the pandemic hit...
