June 1, 2015
What happens—or doesn’t happen—from infancy to the time a child enters kindergarten can set the course for his or her whole life. And what happens— or doesn’t happen—in the first five years of life for Philadelphia’s 110,000 children can set the course for the long-term future of our entire city.
A Running Start Philadelphia, the new citywide early learning plan, lays the foundation for providing our children with the best possible beginnings in life, while seeking to mitigate the damaging effects of poverty.
