Every Child in Every State 

We are working with allies across the country to achieve equitable state early childhood policy that supports young children and their families.

The Latest from the States

In all 50 states, the Alliance for Early Success is making big, sustained impact possible. Take a closer look.

Allies for Antiracism

The Alliance is committed to centering racial equity in our strategic planning and in the community building that is central to our work.

Making Connections that Accelerate Advocacy

When you combine connections to peers, access to experts, general operations funding, learning communities, and responsive assistance tailored to a state's landscape, you get a unique kind of support for state early childhood policy advocates that makes unexpected gains possible.

Resource Centers

The Alliance for Early Success has deep expertise and extensive connections in a long list of early childhood policy areas.

In our resource centers, we connect state advocates—and the broader field—with research, briefs, data sets, state policy examples, and more that represent the latest state early childhood policy knowledge and resources that they need to plan and inform.

In 2024:

65%
of states reported their legislatures are supportive of early childhood issues— an 11 percent increase from 2022.
100%
of states with a legislative session reported an early childhood policy win.
81%
of states with a legislative session reported a policy win that included a budget increase.

The past year was  historic for state actions to improve outcomes for young children. See the big trends and state-by-state reviews in the Alliance’s latest 50-State Early Childhood Policy Progress and Landscape Report.
