Hi everyone, Kate Andrews here from Nok board! As an RN I have a way at looking at issues as treating my patients; and I found this article that sums up looking at the work of NOK like a patient that we are treating. What I find most exciting is that “treating” all of the different parts to build a healthy neighborhood resulted in almost 60 percent increase in kindergarten children being ready for school. That is a huge increase and well worth engagement, time and energy spent learning and supporting families in communities in need. Children are our future and this is such a huge win for our world!
