Big Thought Partners with County for Free Learning Centers
In response to Covid-19, Big Thought is partnering with the Dallas community—Dallas ISD and Child Care Group—to provide emergency childcare options for essentialy workers. The free Learning Center will serve children grades K through 5 whose parents or guardians are employed by local hospitals.
The project was coordinated by the Dallas County Covid-19 Task Force, which determined the need to pilot 2 emergency child care centers to serve essential medical staff who do not have the option of at-home child care solutions. According to Big Thought, "the hope is to restore some normalcy to the children’s lives, while their parents are on the frontlines of this pandemic."
