The Need

Access to quality education continues to be the single most important challenge facing families in the District of Columbia and the greater metropolitan region. Affordable early care and education is critical to keep families working and children on the path to school readiness.

Our Approach

Our holistic approach ensures that the children and families we serve receive the support and encouragement they need to succeed academically, develop a strong sense of community, and live healthy and active lives.
