County Executive Marc Elrich and other community leaders recently joined dozens of community members for a conversation about early care and education priorities and initiatives. The meeting hosted in partnership with the Office of the County Executive, the County Council, Montgomery College, and Montgomery County Public Schools took place on Monday, Nov. 25. The shared goal for the initiative is to ensure that children get what they need to thrive in the early years and to succeed at other stages in life.
The Early Care and Education Initiative is a four-year plan to gather recommendations and identify action steps to significantly expand child care options for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, to provide greater access to care for more families, and to support our schools and community-based providers in providing high-quality services for young children.
