The current Needs Assessment draft is posted on our website where you will also find the feedback submission page. We are eager to get this document finalized, but we cannot do so until we have your feedback. The last day to submit input is August 31, 2022.

August is Children's Eye Health and Safety Month! Take this information as a friendly reminder to check up on your child's eyes. Here are a few steps to take to ensure you are doing what's best for the safety of your little's eyes.

1. Take your child for regular eye screenings.
2. Provide your child with proper sun protection. (i.e. sunglasses, hats, umbrellas, etc.)
3. Feed your child leafy green vegetables and other foods that are a good source of omega-3s fatty acids. 
4. Encourage your child to rest by taking breaks from reading, writing, staring at screens, and other activities that could cause eye strain.
5. Spend time with your child outside.

The Escambia Children's Trust will be closed on Monday, September 5th, in observance of Labor Day. We hope everyone has a safe holiday!
