Early Childhood Director's Group

Here’s Your Opportunity

Join the Discussion!

Early Learning in Minnesota

The Minnesota Department of Education, in partnership with

the Minnesota Initiative Foundations and Minnesota’s Future,

is holding regional community listening sessions to learn how we can

be more effective in linking policies, programs and practices to ensure

every child in Minnesota has a high-quality early education.

•What early learning experiences are working

for young children and families in your community?

•Where are the gaps in your early childhood system?

•How can we support building the capacity

of the early childhood workforce in your community?

Information discussed and themes that arise will be documented and shared

with the Minnesota Departments of Education, Health, Human Services and

the Children’s Cabinet for consideration while planning effective

prenatal through 3rd grade policies, programs and practices.

Join the discussion!
