Collaborative for Children is a non-profit organization dedicated to building a strong educational foundation for young children to succeed in school and life. A passionate team of educators and community leaders, we believe that quality early education opportunities can help level the pathway to success for our children by ensuring that they begin kindergarten on track with the foundation they need to excel.

That's why our work focuses on making the most of the early years, when 90% of the brain's architecture is built and the foundation for future learning is established. Through our work with families, educators and community leaders—those with the greatest ability to shape young lives—we seek to provide the strong early start that young children need to reach their full potential.

You can become a part of our story! By joining Collaborative for Children's Circle of Friends, your financial support will help us prepare more young children for school and lifelong success. Members of our Circle of Friends also receive many opportunities to get involved and help us make a real difference in the lives of young children, their families and their teachers. To find out more about Collaborative for Children,
