Early Care & Education (ECE) is the key tokeeping doors open
ECE transforms lives “High-quality [ECE] helps prepare young children to succeed in school and become better citizens; they earn more, pay more taxes, and commit fewer crimes.” Leslie J. Calman Legal Momentum and Director, Family Initiative
Quality ECE teachers produce quality results “Early childhood interventions of high quality have lasting effects on learning and motivation.” James Heckman, PhD Nobel Laureate in Economic Sciences
ECE puts money in the economy Economists estimate that every dollar spent on ECE can save taxpayers up to ten times as much in future costs.
California works when Early Care & Education works “Quality early education is as essential for a productive 21st century workforce as roads or the internet; investing in it grows the economy.” Leslie J. Calman Legal Momentum and Director, Family Initiative
