SCHOLARSHIPS

One way that the Kathy Reticker Forum for Children and Families aims to increase awareness and advocacy for affordable, high quality child care and education for all children and families is through the awarding of four annual scholarships. These scholarships are made possible through the generosity of our donors and sponsors and memorialize Kathy’s commitment to the advancement of those who teach and care for young children.
