Early childhood advocacy campaign for California’s young kids
This August, First 5 joined with partners to launch All Together Now, a new campaign and rallying cry to amplify the need to make policies, practices, and systems better for California’s kids. Priority areas for the campaign include developmental screening, early intervention, paid family leave, home visiting, and early learning.
