Early Childhood
Our goal is to reduce the number of children under age five experiencing poverty in Dane County. We support public policies that:
- Expand under-resourced families’ access to affordable, high-quality childcare that meets developmental, cultural and linguistic needs for all children in Dane County.
- Provide effective professional development and family-sustaining wages for early childhood professionals.
