Business Perspective

“We know investments in early childhood care and education foster not only healthier children, but also economic development and growth, because parents’ working lives are directly dependent on affordable and accessible high-quality early childhood programs. When businesses invest in the early childhood network they are supporting their employees, young children, business productivity and our communities.”
