School Readiness Funders Coalition: Investing in the Future
The School Readiness Funders Coalition believes every child in Minnesota should be given every opportunity to succeed, starting with access to quality early childhood education. It's good for the child. It's good for the state. And, it's a smart investment.
It is undisputed that children who receive good care and quality early education are more likely to enter kindergarten ready to learn and dramatically do better for the rest of their lives. Whether measured in school completions or income potential, significant research illustrates the impact of quality early childhood care and education on not only individual children but the overall success of the state.
The School Readiness Funders Coalition believes every child in Minnesota should be ready for kindergarten by 2020. To meet this lofty and crucial goal, meaningful reforms and accountability measures are needed in Minnesota's early childhood education and care system.
Please support the School Readiness Funders Coalition today and help give Minnesota's children the essential building blocks in life.
