The Big Idea
Increase the number of quality childcare providers.
Children who attend high quality childcare are nearly twice as likely to be school ready. Generation Next and Think Small will partner to equip childcare providers in Hennepin and Ramsey counties with training and resources designed to increase the quality of care they provide. The partners will offer over 100 licensed childcare providers small business training, literacy resources, coaching and parent outreach skills.
