A National Network
The Educare Learning Network is a collaboration between the Ounce of Prevention Fund, the Buffett Early Childhood Fund, and other national philanthropies and public-private collaborators engaged in more than a dozen states across America. Together, they form a coast-to-coast network of Educare schools serving approximately 3,400 children and families in 13 states and the District of Columbia. Educare Arizona, located in Phoenix, is the only Educare school located in the Southwest.
Each Educare school works to:
- Level the academic playing field for very young children at risk for school failure.
- Inspire and motivate key decision-makers in early childhood policy and practice.
