The Early Years: Partnering with Communities to Prioritize Early Learning
Our Communities for Kids’ team has a saying, that if you have seen one community, you have seen just that—one community. That’s a pretty good way to get to know our initiative.
Communities for Kids (C4K) is driven by a simple yet powerful vision: to lead national efforts to ensure that communities, primarily rural areas, can grow and prosper
by strengthening and sustaining a quality early childhood care and education infrastructure. Created by Nebraska Children and Families Foundation in 2017, we began this important work in Nebraska, and throughout the last seven years, we have partnered with 67 communities to refine a unique initiative that is scalable to any community seeking to establish quality child care and increased capacity.
