Better indicators and child friendly cities

During the December 7, 2011 meeting Dr. Jeff Goldhagen mentioned that our community needed better indicators for  measuring school readiness. He mentioned Colorado's indicators as a great example for the committee to review. Take a look at Colorado's School Readiness Indicators.

The Child Friendly Cities Initiative (a response to the United Nations' Convention on the Rights of the Child) was discussed as well.
