Unlocking the Potential of Every Baby to Grow Up Safe, Healthy and Educated

Our goal is that every baby thrives by improving access to maternal-infant health care and family supports, expanding high-quality early education for infants and toddlers and building systems that provide the resources families need, supported by a culturally diverse workforce.

Our brains grow faster between the ages of 0 and 3 than at any other point in life. Those first few years lay the foundation for the rest of a child’s life, affecting everything from classroom performance, to earning potential, to life expectancy.
