Mission Statement

Let’s Grow Kids, a statewide public education campaign, aims to raise understanding of the importance of the earliest years in the lives of Vermont’s children. Funded by a collaboration of private foundations, Let’s Grow Kids is working with Vermont communities, organizations, businesses, and individuals to create positive lasting change that will allow all of our children to succeed in life.

Description

We want a Vermont where all children can grow to reach their full potential. Science tells us that 80% of a child’s brain develops by age three and 90% by age five, laying the foundation for success in school, relationships and life. However, a recent survey indicates that most Vermonters do not understand the importance of the early years for development.

We're asking our supporters and volunteers to help ensure that all Vermonters understand that our children’s success is built from the bottom up, with quality early experiences that build a strong mental foundation for learning, skill-building and social-emotional development.
