Laura arrived at the child care center with a runny nose and cough. her mother informed the teachers that it was probably "just allergies" and left before laura could be checked in. during their daily health check, the teachers discovered that laura also had a fever, red throat, and swollen glands. laura's mother is a single parent, a student at the local community college and works part time at an early childhood program in another part of town.
What kind of support can the center give to Laura's mother?
