A new initiative has been launched to assist parents in advocating for public preschool programs in their communities. The roadmap aims to provide guidance and resources for those looking to expand early childhood education options.

The creators of the roadmap believe that “access to quality preschool can have a significant impact on a child’s development and future success.” They hope this initiative will empower parents with the necessary tools to bring these educational opportunities closer to home.

This roadmap includes step-by-step instructions, resources, and strategies tailored specifically for parental advocacy. By following these guidelines, parents can engage effectively with local decision-makers and community members to support the establishment of public preschool programs.
