COEUR d’ALENE — North Idaho College Head Start is one of a host of Idaho education programs featured in the newest episode of the Idaho Public Television documentary series “Resilient Idaho: Hope Lives Here.”

The latest episode airs Tuesday at 7 p.m. on Idaho Public Television. It will also be available the same day On Demand at https://video.idahoptv.org/.

The program explores how adverse childhood experiences (which include abuse, neglect and other types of childhood trauma) affect Idahoans and offers a possible antidote: resilience.

Filming took place in the Lake Pend Oreille School District. Tonya Sears, NIC Head Start education/disabilities manager, was interviewed. Head Start classrooms in the NIC Children’s Center and in Sandpoint were also filmed.
