If Congress doesn’t act, seven of Ohio’s 59 Head Start providers could close—affecting 3,738 children, 900 educators, and 1,500 working parents. Head Start delivers early learning, nutrition, and family support that keep kids thriving and parents working. Tell Congress: End the federal shutdown and protect Ohio’s families. 

Ohio needs an investment in early childhood education. Failing to invest in child care results in a signifcant loss of human and economic potential in the workforce. A stronger Ohio recognizes the economic benefits of investing in the early years.

Every family deserves to be heard, but too often families aren't included in the policymaking process that deeply affects their lives and their young children. Help elevate the voices of Ohio parents and families through our statewide network of families. 

We seek to connect people and organizations around the state to build unique coalitions of diverse stakeholders who share early childhood policy as a priority.
