Kristin Sancken – ReadyKids Breakfast!

The 2019 ReadyKids Community Breakfast is Monday, April 15th, from 8-9:30 am at The Omni Hotel in downtown Charlottesville. The annual breakfast increases awareness of the needs of children and families in our community by bringing together over 200 guests from local government, school boards, leaders of other non-profits, workers from city and county agencies, and the community at large. WINA’s Jay James has Emcee honors, and this year’s keynote speaker is clinical psychologist Meg Jay.

Kristin Sancken, MSW, Communications Officer for ReadyKids, joins Wendy to talk about the ReadyKids program, and to preview the event.
