Community

Each Indiana community is unique in its needs and opportunities, but a common thread across the state, in every community, is the importance of affordable, high-quality early care and education. 

The first five years of a child’s life are foundational in their development. Research shows that investments in early care and education result in fewer investments later in the areas of K-12 remediation, health care, criminal justice costs and more. Accessible and affordable high-quality early care and education creates a two-generational economic impact, allowing parents to participate in the workforce and provide for their families while engaging and educating the next generation workforce. 

Early care and education is a community-wide issue. Investments in early childhood educations create sustainable, thriving communities. We can assist with bringing community leaders, organizations and businesses together, to create scalable, sustainable solutions using data, employer and community needs assessments, and child care trends to meet each community’s specific needs.
