Program Information Summaries 
Early Head Start Parent Education 
On October 17, the interns from the Arizona College of Nursing conducted a parent 
education session on asthma for 10 Early Head Start families at Out of This World 
Christian Childcare. The presentation included information on common symptoms, steps 
to take during an asthma attack, and various treatment options. It was offered both in 
person and virtually, and the session was recorded for families who were unable to attend 
or who wished to review the material later. Additionally, the interns created informative 
handouts on safe sleep practices and febrile seizures for the parents.
