Why I joined

“I have spent nearly two decades making the case, as an advocate and as a legislator, that the first five years of life shape everything that follows. Dr. Housman’s work turns the science of early emotional development into practice for the educators and families who need it most. I am proud to advise a team whose mission I have believed in from the first conversation.”
