EdNC’s Analysis of Models to Provide Early Childhood Education on the Campuses of Community Colleges

“Kids on Campus” is a national partnership between the Association of Community College Trustees (ACCT) and the National Head Start Association (NHSA) “to advance student-parent success and the school readiness of young children from families with low incomes by bringing more Head Start child care centers to more community college campuses.”

The five-year initiative aims to establish at least 50 such programs by 2030, according to a press release.

“Two of the most effective strategies for reducing poverty,” says a recent report about Kids on Campus, “are providing high-quality early childhood education for young children and supporting parents through education and training that will advance their career goals.”
