All Our Kin is an early education collaborative in New Haven for single parents on public assistance. These single parents meet state workfare requirements while training to become child care providers as they work with their own children. Support is provided to help participants start their own family day care centers within the community or to obtain positions at existing centers upon graduation.
Sager received her J.D. from Yale in 1999 and is currently an Arthur Liman Public Interest Fellow at the Law School. As a student, she advocated on behalf of children needing special education and worked with clients threatened by domestic violence. Sager also researched and documented the impact of Connecticut's welfare laws on parents and children in the New Haven area.
