Rhode Islanders overwhelmingly support investing in our kids, and especially early education.
This is key because research shows the first five years of children’s lives are critically important for their development.
We’re committed to ensuring all children succeed in school and life.
We want to welcome RI lawmakers to the new legislative session and make sure they keep important kids issues like child care and early childhood education on the table. All kids deserve a strong start in life.
As an advocate and a resident of Cranston, I'm proud to support Governor Raimondo's call to further expand education access for all children. Let's continue to invest together in our children education today to ensure a thriving future for them and our State.
After campaigning on the expansion of preschool and other early-childhood programs, many of the nation’s newly elected governors are following through with budget proposals that include money to support children from cradle to school entry.
The head of Save the Children Action Network joins Eyewitness News This Morning to explain why the group supports the governor's proposal for universal pre-K in Rhode Island.
