“We are proud to partner with Bachman Lake Together because it has a deep understanding of the complex task of preparing children for kindergarten. The organization reaches immigrant families on a level that few others can. While it helps address their needs, it also encourages families to advocate for themselves and teaches them how to amplify their voices in the community.”
