The Early Years Matter

Why it matters

From birth to age 5, a child's brain develops more than at any other time in life. And early brain development has a lifelong impact.

Investing in early childhood.

The early years are critical for a child's healthy development, and investing in quality early childhood programs benefits kids, families, communities and our state.
