Camden Healthy Start is proud to participate in National Take our Daughters and Sons to Work Day!From the Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work Foundation: Designed to be more than a career day, the Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work® program goes beyond the average practice of “shadowing” an adult. Exposing children to what a parent or mentor does during the work day is important, but showing them the value of their education, helping them discover the power and possibilities of work and family life, providing boys and girls a chance to share how they envision the future, and allowing them to begin steps toward their goals in a hands-on and interactive environment is key to their achieving success.#TakeOurDaughtersAndSonsToWorkDay ...
