On Monday, the President visited Camden, New Jersey -- a city that has struggled with one of the nation's highest violent crime rates.

Dedicated to building a stronger, safer community, the Camden County Police Department and the community have worked together to help police do their jobs more safely, to reduce crime, and to create more economic opportunity in communities that have been saddled with a history of isolation.

 Quote of the Day

"If communities are being isolated and segregated, without opportunity and without investment and without jobs -- if we politicians are simply ramping up long sentences for nonviolent drug crimes that end up devastating communities, we can't then ask the police to be the ones to solve the problem when there are no able-bodied men in the community, or kids are growing up without intact households."

Tell Us: Why Do You Think Early Childhood Education Is Important? 

Monday marked 50 years since President Lyndon B. Johnson created Head Start -- a program to help meet the emotional, social, health, nutritional, and psychological needs of preschool-aged children from low-income families.

President Obama has made clear the importance of expanding access to high-quality early childhood education -- but we also want to hear from you and get your feedback.
