For this assignment, consider what you have learned and why this field is so important. Then develop a Children’s Mental Health Awareness Brochure as follows:
Choose a specific audience you would like to inform – parents and family members, early childhood professionals, or medical professionals who are learning about young children.
Create a fact sheet summarizing at least 10 vital points you want to make sure your “audience” understands.
Use the information from the Learning Resources and at least one other source from the Learning Resources.
Be sure to use your own words and credit your sources
