We’re Mobilizing Washingtonians to Be the Voice for Kids
Washington State voters overwhelmingly support investing in our kids, and especially early education and child nutrition.
This is key because research shows the first five years of children’s lives are critically important for their development.
We’re training everyday Evergreen Staters to be the voice for kids.
We’re committed to ensuring all children succeed in school and life.
