CHAMPIONING BRIGHTER FUTURES FOR ALL
Because every child deserves a strong start
Key Focus Areas
For Families
Just imagine…if all parents had the information and support they need to help children grow to their full potential.
Do you ever wonder what your child will be like in the future? We now know that the experiences and opportunities that children have in their earliest years shape the ways they will grow and thrive as they move through school-age and into adulthood. Four aspects of early childhood are especially important to growth and development: health, mental health, early care and education, and parent support.
For Providers
Just imagine…if child care professionals had sufficient resources to provide the highest quality services to children in their care.
The work of early childhood professionals is of great value and importance to Boulder County. Child care providers and early childhood teachers nurture the future, one child at a time. ECCBC is working to increase the resources available for wages, benefits, and programming within the early care and education system. But always remember...
The greatest resource within the early care and education is the early childhood professional. Our greatest resource is you!

For the Community
Just imagine...if all child-serving agencies in Boulder County worked in concert and if public policy supported them all.
An Early Childhood System refers to the many interrelated programs, services and community fabric that work together in a coordinated fashion toward the common goal: to support the healthy growth and optimal development of all young children in the context of their families. Young children are defined as birth to five years old.
In order to design an optimal early childhood system for Boulder County, input, collaboration and partnership from many individuals, agencies and the community is required.
