About the Early Childhood Partnership of Adams County

The Early Childhood Partnership of Adams County is cultivating an effective early childhood ecosystem for children from birth through age five and their families in Adams County. We define an effective early childhood ecosystem as one where every child and family in Adams County has equitable access to the high-quality and affordable services and supports they need to thrive. The Early Childhood Partnership of Adams County is one of 34 organizations tasked by state legislation to help local communities do this important work effectively. Cultivating an effective early childhood ecosystem requires whole community collaborative impact. This means we collaborate with everyone who has an impact on a child’s life in their first five years and beyond, including those who care for children, those who support children, those who teach children and those who invest in children. Most importantly, we include parents and families in all of our work because they are a child’s most important caregivers, supporters, teachers and investors. Together our work strengthens the connections between these groups, fills the gaps in resources and increases the quality of care, services, support and education for children and families. When we invest in early childhood as a whole community, we create better outcomes for each child, each family, our community and our state. Research shows from birth through age five, a child’s brain develops more than at any other time in life. When children and their families have equitable access to high quality care and education, they are better prepared for kindergarten, do better in school and are healthier throughout their lifetime. While parents are working hard to support their children, no single person or organization can provide everything a child needs to be healthy, to learn, to succeed in school and to thrive in the long term.
