House Resolution No. ___, introduced by Representative Miller, commends the Geaux Far Louisiana Coalition for its efforts in advocating for the needs of Louisiana's children from prenatal to five years old. Established in 2021, the coalition consists of thirty-six individuals from various sectors who focus on creating a unified early childhood system. They have identified five key goals to ensure families have access to high-quality early child development, health, and educational services. The coalition collaborates with local organizations to align their objectives and improve outcomes for young learners across the state.
In recognition of the coalition's work and its commitment to fostering healthy families and thriving communities, the resolution designates Tuesday, April 15, 2025, as Geaux Far Day at the state capitol. The initiative encourages individuals to become "Champions for Children" by advocating for legislative policies that support early childhood development. The resolution highlights the importance of engaging parents, educators, policymakers, and community leaders in shaping policies that benefit young children and their families in Louisiana.
