Mission: Our mission is to build bridges to develop, sustain and enhance health, family support and early education services for all children, ages birth to five.
Target demographics: All Children birth to five to thrive in school and be successful.
Geographic areas served: New Hanover County, Wilmington, NC
Programs: A child has about 2,000 days between birth and the start of Kindergarten. We know that during this time in a child’s life, the brain grows to 90% of its adult size and children are eager and ready to learn; therefore, their access to high quality health care and learning environments matters greatly. We collaborate with our statewide and local network of community services on behalf of children and their families in order to ensure that every child has the opportunity to enter school prepared for success.
