Our Priorities
We work to make Florida the best place for young children to live and to thrive. Here’s what it takes to get there: safe, stimulating, and nurturing early learning opportunities; good health care—including early identification and intervention for developmental delays and disabilities; and parents who are supported in their workplace and in society. These legislative and societal changes support young children and the adults who care for them, building toward a safer, healthier, more prosperous Florida.
Strong Results in Early Learning
Children only get one chance to learn the fundamentals correctly. Ensure that Florida's early learning programs are viewed and funded as the foundation of our education system.
Increase options for parents by supporting home-based and center-based programs.
Celebrate and support early learning educators.
Healthy Children and Healthy Communities
Protect KidCare expansion and outreach efforts, so Florida families have access to more affordable coverage, adequate preventive care, mental health care, and a medical home.
Get babies off to a strong start by supporting prenatal health care, early childhood mental health, strong relationships, and early screening and intervention.
Families Matter
Help families gain financial independence with policies that support families contributing to Florida's dynamic economy.
Encourage employers to enhance family-friendly policies, such as paid parental leave for mothers and fathers, early learning tuition assistance, breastfeeding supports, and flexibility.
