Join us for an unforgettable evening of inspiration, connection, and commitment to Mississippi’s youngest children.
The Mississippi Early Learning Alliance (MELA) is thrilled to host our second Big Voices for Little Children event, an evening cocktail reception celebrating Mississippi employers who support families and strengthen the workforce. This event will be held immediately following the annual State of Babies symposium. The event will highlight effective policies and practices to improve hiring, retention, and productivity that also help parents of young children. Bringing together business leaders, policymakers, and advocates, the evening will showcase what’s working—and how to expand it across the state.
Together, we’ll celebrate Mississippi companies who are investing in their employees in ways that encourage recruitment and retention of talent, while also supporting the health, well-being, and education of young children.
WHAT IS INCLUDED: Each ticket to the event includes entertainment, hors d'oeuvres and 2 drinks of your choice, and a free registration to the State of Babies Policy Symposium being held immediately before the reception from 12:30pm-4:30pm at the Faulkner Building.
