Supporting Dual Language Learners
Manage episode 290663753 series 2882250
It is National Bilingual/Multilingual Learner Advocacy Month!
We will be highlighting resources for families, teachers, and providers to support our state’s Dual Language Learners (DLLs). Nearly half of California households represent multilingual families and we recognize the increased significance of supporting our multilingual communities here at Catalyst.
Joining us today are our Dual Language Learning experts Lizelle Wulff, Karla Delgado & Jennifer Escamilla. They previously joined us for an interview over on our connection hub last year where we initially learned about the DLL program. You can find it over on our website www.catalystkids.org.
