Are Children Really Our Future?
I live in an area that is not so great. Hartford,CT. And lately many of the grade schools are closing down, due to lack of funding, or bad keeping up with. This same year they plan on opening up a multi million dollar minor league baseball field which is causing a frenzy with parents in the town. Now many politicians and entertainers always preach that the children are the future but yet towns like mine and all over America, these children from "ghetto" areas are not receiving the education of even a caveman. My career path is to help towns like mine rebuild up our school systems and reach out to all these million dollar companies for support. It seems as though we are more interested in entertaining the youth than educating them.

Knowing the right people usually is a huge part of the battle. Start networking like crazy, get involved, ask questions and ask for help. Aside from that, there are too many people who aren't willing to work long and hard. Prove that you can and employers will be much more likely to give you a shot.

We believe that children are priceless treasures and gifts from God, and as such, it is our conviction that the physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs of children should be amply and competently met. We consider the care of the little ones God entrusts into our care to be a very important responsibility.
We believe that every child has the right:
To be loved, cherished, and supported
To be treated with respect and dignity
To receive responsible care and to be handled with kindness
To be encouraged and nurtured emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually
To have their physical needs adequately met, including nutrition, housing, and medical care
To receive a good education that provides competence and empowers them to be self-sufficient
To be taught good values and morals to guide them in life
To learn about God’s personal love and care for them
To be taught boundaries and self-discipline
To be empowered to realize their full potential
To be prepared for the responsibilities and challenges of adulthood
To develop their individuality
To be treated fairly and justly, without discrimination
To be in a safe environment; to be protected from harm and danger
