CCA Celebrates 50 Year Anniversary

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 

Child Care Associates Launches 50 Year Anniversary Celebration, Announces Ten Year Plan
CCA has served over 500,000 children ages 0-5 years old since 1968.

FORT WORTH, Texas – February 2, 2018 – Child Care Associates (CCA) is celebrating its fifty-year anniversary in 2018 and today announces goals for the decade ahead, including CCA’s North Star plan. In Tarrant County alone, there are approximately 36,000 children under the age of five living in poverty. During the past fifty years, CCA has served nearly 600,000 children ages 0-5. Over 500 employees across three offices, 23 campuses and 74 partnership classrooms currently serve over 15,000 children each year in greater Tarrant County.

“A commitment to early childhood development is crucial to a strong community and its future,” states Child Care Associates President and CEO Kara Waddell. “Since 1968, Child Care Associates has advanced the opportunity of reaching at risk children before they arrive at school. CCA works to support the whole child – intellectually, emotionally, and physically—as well as supporting the whole family.” The impact of high-quality early learning is astounding: research indicates that every $1 invested in early childhood produces a return of $7. “For communities wanting to sustain a strong workforce and economy, early learning is one of the best investments to make,” adds Waddell. Waddell is in her fourth year as President and CEO of CCA.

CCA has developed a “North Star” with goals to be achieved in the decade ahead. High-quality based research, family-centered design, a focus on resiliency, diverse educators, and building a fiscally strong nonprofit will be key principles of design. The North Star will be the foundation of three-year strategic plans for near-term implementation. CCA’s five goals for the next ten years are:

  • Provide high-quality early learning services with a focus on scaling programs serving children birth through age three
  • Serve the whole child and whole family
  • Champion the creation of a high-quality system
  • Strengthen the pipeline of talent in early childhood education
  • Build partnerships with families and schools to support continued development through third grade and beyond

The community acknowledges the importance of children in poverty being on grade-level in mathematics, reading, and social-emotional learning outcomes by the end of third grade. Child Care Associates will focus on two metrics on the pathway to third grade: the progress children are making in early literacy, mathematics, and social-emotional learning by age three, and kindergarten readiness among children in poverty. CCA announced the ten-year plan at a community reception held yesterday. Educational leaders, Mayor Betsy Price, Judge B. Glen Whitley, superintendents from three local school districts, and corporate and philanthropic leaders from across the Metroplex were in attendance.

Kara Waddell is available for interviews. To schedule an interview with a CCA representative regarding this news, contact Katherine Rose Watson (pr@childcareassociates.org, 972-489-7694).

 

About Child Care Associates

Child Care Associates is the largest child development nonprofit in North Texas and has served over half a million young children in the past fifty years. Through Head Start and Early Head Start programs, Child Care Associates delivers early education that ensures at-risk children are ready to succeed in school. As a “whole-child, whole-family” program, Child Care Associates offers support in areas such as mental health, emotional development, and nutrition for low-income children ages 0-5. Child Care Associates operates twenty-three child development centers in the greater Fort Worth and Arlington areas to serve nearly 2,500 children per school day. While 80% of Head Start & Early Head Start programs are funded through federal dollars, Child Care Associates works with community partners to meet the remaining 20%.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Allcal Events Launches New Branded App Solution
New vertical allows clients to transform Allcal into their own branded event app that’s 100% compliant with the new Apple App Store guidelines.
 
TSNN Article Image - Branded App.png
Dallas, Texas – January 30, 2018 – Allcal Events is excited to announce the new Branded App Solution. Clients of Allcal Events can now select their own color template, logos, and even app icon button to customize the Allcal app for their event attendees. This year the Apple App Store began rejecting white label or duplicate event apps in what is commonly referred to as Appageddon, leaving many events, conventions, and trade shows in need of an alternative. Allcal has the solution and is 100% compliant with the App Store guidelines.
“The new Apple App Store guidelines are a great thing for users and event organizers alike, because it will force developers to make better apps,” states Allcal CEO Daniel Cocanougher. “But it will also leave a big hole in the event app industry and many organizers scrambling – that’s where Allcal can help.” Allcal is the aggregator or “picker” model that Apple specifically refers to in the updated App Store guidelines as an example of what is acceptable.
The numerous filters on Allcal Events can handle even the most complicated scope of multi-day programming with color-coded filters. The new panel schedule creator allows clients to have creative control in an interface that’s easy to use. Allcal Events clients can add links, images, Twitter feeds, and more to schedules.
In-app chat rooms allow users to communicate in real time, building excitement and community for events. Clients can also promote and sponsor important chat messages to be seen by event attendees. All updates to the schedule update in real time, sending a push notification to event attendees.
Allcal Events also features convenient in-app ticketing services and complete event and calendar management system within the dashboard so that clients can manage everything in one place and see valuable engagement data. No coding is required to utilize Allcal Events. The branded app package costs $3,000 per year, considerably less than the cost to develop one’s own app. Allcal Events is offering a promotion discount of 10% with any contracts signed before March 31, 2018.

Black Star Sport Horses Events

Rockwall, Texas – January 25, 2018 – Premier dressage training, show, and sales facility Black Star Sport Horses (5565 FM 549, Rockwall, TX 75032) today announces the schedule for the 2018 Spring Series. The popular spring schooling shows allow horse-enthusiasts all over Dallas-Fort Worth to enjoy the beauty of European warmbloods as they compete in non-rated horse shows at Black Star’s 250+ acre farm.

March 17, 2018
April 14, 2018
May 19, 2018

The schooling shows begin at 9 am. The duration of each show is dependent on the number of entries.

What is Dressage?

Dressage is an English style of riding with a rich history of ancient European warhorses. Today, dressage competitions test how well a horse is trained. According to the International Equestrian Federation, dressage is the “highest expression of horse training” and aims to develop a horse’s natural athletic ability. While dressage benefits all breeds of horse, the most popular breeds seen at the Olympics and other high-level competitions are warmblood horses bred specifically for dressage. 

About Black Star Sport Horses

Owned by Jackie and Lisa Blackmon, Black Star Sport Horses is a premier dressage training, show, and sales facility located on 255 acres just twenty minutes east of Dallas. Jackie grew up training young horses in Fort Worth and has since won over 40 USDF Championships. Lisa has spent her life training and competing on international sport horses, even training seven Grand Prix horses. Together Jackie and Lisa run a program dedicated to helping each horse reach its full potential. For more information, visit www.blackstarsporthorses.com
