Building a community where every young child and their family can reach their full potential.
关于我们
The Early Childhood Partnership of Adams County is cultivating an effective early childhood ecosystem for children from birth through age five and their families in Adams County. We define an effective early childhood ecosystem as one where every child and family in Adams County has equitable access to the high-quality and affordable services and supports they need to thrive. The Early Childhood Partnership of Adams County is one of 34 organizations tasked by state legislation to help local communities do this important work effectively. Cultivating an effective early childhood ecosystem requires whole community collaborative impact. This means we collaborate with everyone who has an impact on a child’s life in their first five years and beyond, including those who care for children, those who support children, those who teach children and those who invest in children. Most importantly, we include parents and families in all of our work because they are a child’s most important caregivers, supporters, teachers and investors. Together our work strengthens the connections between these groups, fills the gaps in resources and increases the quality of care, services, support and education for children and families. When we invest in early childhood as a whole community, we create better outcomes for each child, each family, our community and our state. Research shows from birth through age five, a child’s brain develops more than at any other time in life. When children and their families have equitable access to high quality care and education, they are better prepared for kindergarten, do better in school and are healthier throughout their lifetime. While parents are working hard to support their children, no single person or organization can provide everything a child needs to be healthy, to learn, to succeed in school and to thrive in the long term.

Colorado is one of the states with the highest cost for childcare in our nation. ECPAC hopes that there is bipartisan support for investments into financially supporting both families and childcare programs. Our economy depends on it as do our children. https://lnkd.in/g8pThR_S

Our team celebrates October as Breast Cancer Awareness month - with some of us who have personally struggled with breast cancer and some of us who have close family or friends who have. We care about the health of all of the women and men who are family caregivers and professional caregivers of young children (while rare - yes men can get breast cancer too). Please take a moment to do your self or professional checks! Our kids depend on it!

The coaching team includes four talented professionals dedicated to building trusting relationships with providers of all kinds. From the family child care home provider who's been doing this work for decades to the small center who only recently opened its doors to the large center with many classrooms and dozens of babies, toddlers, and preschoolers in their care, our coaches individualize their support to meet teachers, directors, and family childcare home providers where they are so they can develop, educate, and nurture the young children in Adams County.
