Accelerate
learning for all

​A Chance To Grow and the Minnesota Learning Resource Center's brain-based workshops and seminars are here to provide you with the skills to implement research-based developmental interventions into your - or your students - daily lives! From helping children develop the readiness skills essential to classroom success or furthering your own professional development as an early childhood educator, our programs will provide participants with the stimulation they need to grow - physically, cognitively, and socially.
