Reimagining Everyday Places as Early Learning Hubs

Description:

Young children spend 80% of their time outside of school, but too many lack access to joyful experiences that encourage learning through hands-on activities and play. Though these opportunities exist in our highest-income neighborhoods, they are often inaccessible to families in under-resourced communities. Join us as we explore innovative programs that tackle this divide by transforming overlooked spaces—sidewalks, shelters and even jails—into nurturing learning environments accessible to all kids, and discover why community involvement is crucial for fostering children’s early development.
