For over 15 years, teams of trained Northwestern students have taught critical language, literacy, and social-emotional skills to local preschoolers, in partnership with Jumpstart, a national early education organization working toward the day every child in America enters kindergarten prepared to succeed. While that partnership has ended, the new initiative, Community Connect Schools, builds on the success of that work. Learn more about supporting childhood education with Community Connect Schools.
