A 5-year Campaign for Ideal Learning

A partnership between Trust for Learning and Early Milestones Colorado that kicked off in 2018 has transformed Colorado’s early childhood landscape through movement building, thought leadership, and direct investments. The initiative has served more than 1,000 children across the state, and thousands more will benefit in the years to come, owing to investments in the policy landscape, educator development, classroom materials, and curriculum implementation.
