State Budgeting Matters Early Care and Education Funding in Ohio

groundWork is a coalition of early care and education leaders, parents, service professionals, business leaders, and organizations across the state who have come together to promote state investments and policies that will address the needs of Ohio's youngest children, including voluntary access to high-quality early care and education programs, assessment, screening, and treatment for social and emotional problems, increased access to health services and supports, and voluntary access to full-day kindergarten. The campaign is working to ensure that every parent in our community has the tools they need to provide a safe, healthy, and enriching environment for their children during the first six years of life.
