Find a Partnership
With support from Best Beginnings, 11 communities in Alaska have organized and are building early childhood partnerships in their communities. (View on Map)
The partnership model is based on the belief that a diverse group of local residents are in the best position to understand the needs of young children and their families within their communities. By working together, partnerships can break down barriers, identify gaps, and design solutions to meet their communities’ needs.
Funding for the grants is possible because of major contributions from BP, ConocoPhillips, and the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development through Best Beginnings.
