About the Provider

Description: BTHCCD believes that children are very special members of our society. The early experiences that children have will greatly influence the kinds of experiences they will make for themselves as adults - thus, each child needs to be exposed to as many positive learning experiences as possible in everyday living and in their education. The adults in their lives need to be the kind of role models that guide and direct them to become loving, caring, compassionate, responsible, and constructive people. The adults must teach both from positive and negative experiences, creating positive results even when negative experiences exist, to teach the child how to intelligently cope in a realistic world.
