The Community Systems Statewide Supports team envisions a future where local communities work together to provide holistic, equitable support for children from birth to age five, centering family voice and equity.

While the early childhood landscape is complex and fragmented, we want community collaborations and early childhood leaders to know; you don’t have to navigate this environment alone!

Centering Parent engagement

We believe that parents should be the most prioritized voice when it comes to collaborations work because they have been too often excluded from early childhood systems.

Centering racial equity

We all have a role to play in advancing racial equity and deconstructing inequitable early childhood systems through community systems development. Together, we work towards equitable outcomes for all children.
