Start Early & Close the Opportunity Gap
We know how to give every child an equal opportunity to learn. To thrive. To reach their full potential. We’re a community of dedicated early learning champions on a mission to change the world one child at a time.
Start Early Stories
Early learning makes equal opportunity a reality. In the Start Early stories below, individuals from across the country share how their lives have been transformed by early learning and care.
Why are we champions for early learning?
Inequality starts at birth. The impact lasts a lifetime. Decades of research clearly demonstrates that quality early childhood education can help break the cycle of poverty, but the U.S. has failed to improve outcomes for children at scale. With your help, we can change that.
