All children need a chance to succeed. That chance starts with inclusive, high quality early education.
Early childhood education and care programs prepare children to grow and learn, and allow parents to go to work knowing their children are in the best possible care. The benefits of early education also translate to success later in life. Children who attend high-quality programs have a reduced likelihood of criminal behavior, higher chances of being employed as adults, increased lifetime earnings, and less reliance on welfare. Right now, however, there are more than 20,000 three and four-year-olds in Allegheny County without access to publicly funded, high-quality Pre-K. Parents face many roadblocks to access, among them long waiting lists and difficulty navigating the system. By investing in early learning, we are investing resources on children when they need it the most. IT’S TIME TO MAKE SURE ALL ALLEGHENY COUNTY CHILDREN ARE READY TO SUCCEED. PreK NOW is: 1.Building a group of parents who can work together to tackle this critical problem. 2. Coordinating with local and statewide partners to share resources and ideas. 3. Sharing our stories of roadblocks to child care access with key decision-makers in the state. 4. Holding decision-makers accountable for their decisions and actions. 5. Increasing access to inclusive, high quality, affordable and accessible early education and childcare for all of our children.
