“Make A Circle” Film Screening
Thursday, April 10 @ 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm
A film by Jen Bradwell and Todd Boekelheide. Presented by Pozez JCC’s ECLC and the NVAEYC, an affiliate of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
6:30pm: Doors open
7:00pm: Film Screening
During NAEYC’s Week of the Young Child, April 5-11, 2025, NVAEYC and Pozez JCC’s ECLC will co-sponsor MAKE A CIRCLE, a film that confronts a broken child care system where, “Parents can’t afford to pay, and teachers can’t afford to stay.”
The film captures the unfolding stories of Patricia, a leader of a new childcare union, as she advocates on behalf of a largely immigrant workforce. Charlotte, who tirelessly lifts up the low-income families in her care; and Anne, the director of a large preschool, who finds novel ways to support her teachers when jobs at McDonald’s are offering higher pay.
Weaving together the magic they create in the classroom, the struggles they endure at home, and their tireless activism for their profession, MAKE A CIRCLE is a moving portrait of life as an Early Childhood Educator and a promising blueprint for change.
