The PEAL Center supports families of children with disabilities with a variety of services aimed at ensuring children receive quality special education. PEAL Center’s "Let’s Play: Building Language and Literacy into Every Day" information packet teaches parents to look for signs of early language and literacy development in their children, as well as techniques to help facilitate early cognition and speech efforts.

The informational packets explain how using specific symbols, sounds, and gestures can help youngsters to experience the world and build language and literacy skills from birth. Print resource guides explain early language development using images and English text with online access to Spanish translation, and an instructional DVD offers an introduction to sign language. Print and video practice guides also come with the pack to illustrate reading and drawing techniques. The PEAL Center requires additional funding to meet its goal of distributing 1,000 language-and-literacy resource packets to families across the state, focusing on low-literacy and underserved regions.

Join G-Team and donate $10 to help provide parents with information about language and literacy development through play. If G-Team members raise $250, then the PEAL Center can distribute language-and-literacy resource packets to 25 underserved families. Each additional $10 raised will fund a resource packet for another family.

Unlike traditional Groupon deals, G-Team campaigns typically don't offer you a "discount" or "savings." So "buyer" beware—when you click "Buy" to donate your time or money to a worthwhile G-Team cause, the only discount you may receive is 100 percent off free, priceless karma. Read more about G-Team.
