Issue:
TOO MANY CHILDREN lack access to high quality early care and education. 90% of a child’s brain is developed by age 5, but yet they are the age group we least invest in.
TOO MANY CHILDREN are being left behind, finding the American Dream even harder to achieve as the gap between the “haves” and the “have- nots” widens.

Action:
Let's come together and discuss what we can do to advocate for earcly childhood education.
