Families & providers:
Find resources and influence decisions
- Find information to answer your questions.
- Identify who else is asking similar questions, and learn what others have found.
- Connect and partner with researchers, city and community leaders, and other providers and families to spark new ideas.
- Apply new ideas to create better experiences for children and families.
[EC*REACH will] propel new research as well as deepen and extend the partnerships between researchers and community. It creates the table to ask the questions and ask if we are asking the right questions.
