Dear Colleagues,
In late June, the U.S. Department of Education (ED) announced a new round of funding available for the Promise Neighborhoods Program, which works to significantly improve the academic and developmental outcomes of children living in the most distressed communities of the United States. This is a critical opportunity to ensure that the needs of young children are included. Applications for this new round of federal funding are due on Oct. 7, and ED plans to make awards of between $4M-$6M to communities across the country. |
Register to join Start Early for an informational webinar on Tuesday, Aug. 9 at 10 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. CT / 1 p.m. ET to learn about:
-
Preparing a successful Promise Neighborhood grant application for your community
-
Ensuring you receive all the available points for including early childhood education and priority populations
-
Opportunities for technical assistance and support for implementing your community’s vision
|
We hope you can join us on Aug. 9 to learn more about how to maximize this funding opportunity to support early childhood education in your community. To learn more about the Promise Neighborhood Program,

Best,
Kristin Bernhard
Senior Vice President, Advocacy & Policy, Start Early |
