By

Global
Staff
DETROIT
- While
our
healthcare
workers,
elder
caregivers,
and
first
responders
are on
the
frontlines
of the
fight
against
COVID-19,
they are
in need
of care
too.
High-quality,
safe,
and
nurturing
care for
their
own
children
is
essential
to give
these
fighters
the
family
support
they
need to
get to
work and
peace of
mind to
focus on
their
critical
jobs. #FirstRespondersFirst
has
brought
together
Harvard
School
of
Public
Health,
Thrive
Global,
CAA, and
Bright
Horizons
to open
special
child
care
hubs to
meet the
needs of
our
first
responders
who
need,
first
and
foremost,
to
respond
to the
needs of
their
own
young
children.
Bright
Horizons
will
operate
with
special
COVID-19
protocols
in
place,
including
limited
capacity
and
small
group
sizes,
enhanced
teacher:
child
ratios,
and
intensive
hygiene
and
cleaning
practices.
The
centers
will be
staffed
with
expertly
trained
and
experienced
local
Bright
Horizons
early
educators.
Care
will be
available
for
children
ages
infants
through
6 years
old and
will be
free to
first
responders.
