Montana Early Childhood Network
About the Network
Early childhood (ages 0-8) is a crucially important period of growth and development – the experiences and relationships we form in our earliest years shape our lives.
To increase coordination and build collective impact, individuals, organizations, and coalitions working to improve the early childhood system in our state are uniting to form the Montana Early Childhood Network to ensure young children and families in Montana are prioritized in decision-making at all levels.
Members of the Network are diverse and unique. There are many avenues to support the Network vision, and members are invited to participate in network activities as they align with their interests and capacities.
Individuals, organizations, and coalitions who care about a robust and supported early childhood system in Montana are invited to join the network!
Stay in the loop!
