Abstract	These three newsletter issues provide organizational news from the program that awards the Child Development Associate (CDA) credential to caregivers. Each issue provides a CDA profile of an exceptional educator or caregiver. The March issue introduces the new director of the Council for Early Childhood Professional Recognition and describes exceptional CDA programs in South Carolina and Alabama. A progress report on the CDA program, a listing of new publications, and seminars for professional development are also described. The August issue reports on the status of the CDA credentialing program, CDA training locations in Arkansas, and institutions offering academic credit for the CDA credential. Information on the Nursery Nature Walks organization and the international conference in recognition of the United Nations' International Year of the Family is also provided. The November issue provides data compiled from the latest CDA survey on education, salary, and position information on CDAs. Information is provided on the establishment of the national CDA Advisory panel, availability of Joint Training Partnership Act (JTPA) funds for CDA credential training, and the Family Child Care Training Project curriculum integrating special needs children into regular child care programs. An essay on CDAs in Head Start is also included. (SD)
