“I Love Kids!” A thank you for Pope County childcare providers was created on the Western Prairie Human Services window in downtown Glenwood. Artist Char Slack of Evansville created a colorful painting to help celebrate Child Care Appreciation Month. Pope County Early Childhood (EC)/THRIVE Initiative members, Western Prairie Human Services, West Central Initiative and Child Care Aware have been honoring providers throughout the month of May. “Providers help or communities work as we acknowledge their importance each and every day!” it was stated.
