In Case You Missed It: Start Early’s State Policy Update Report and Launch Webinar Recording Are Now Live! We hope you feel rejuvenated by a hard-earned holiday break so that we can hit the ground running together in 2021 advocating for our youngest learners! As you and your fellow early care and learning advocates get ready for 2021 legislative sessions, here are three resources that can help you source inspiration and ideas:
1.) The State Policy Update Report Resource Hub
You can access the full report, report summaries and social media toolkit on our State Policy Update Report Resource Hub. The report provides a snapshot of early childhood budget and policy changes in states during the 2019-2020 legislative sessions. The report also includes insights from the lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic and its disproportionate impact on historically marginalized communities.
2.) View the Recording of Start Early's December 2020 State Policy Update Report Launch Webinar
During this virtual event and panel discussion, community and state advocates summarized the top-line trends that emerged from the 2020 State Policy Update Report. For those who would like to take another look or share it with colleagues we've posted a recording of the webinar.
3.) Read the State Policy Update Report Blog Post
We encourage you to review Start Early's State Policy Update Report blog post sharing the unique value the report offers for those developing legislative agendas for the year ahead. Read the blog post.
We wish you and your teams every success in 2021 as you work to advance the needs of children and families. Please reach out to Judy Reidt-Parker, director of national policy, with questions or feedback on the State Policy Update Report.
