Early Learning Coalition of Broward County
The Early Learning Coalition of Broward County, Inc.'s vision that all children in Broward County will enter kindergarten socially, emotionally, physically, cognitively and behaviorally ready to learn and families will have comprehensive early care and education services readily available to them in order to be stable and strong. The Coalition’s role is to develop and administer a comprehensive school readiness program that prepares children to succeed in school and in life, as described in the Local School Readiness Coalition Plan as approved by the Office of Early Learning. This in an ongoing process that involves building on existing services, working in cooperation with other programs for young children and coordinating and integrating program funding and services to achieve efficiency, accountability and full effectiveness. The Coalition receives the majority of its funding directly from Florida's Office of Early Learning. Some funds are then awarded to community organizations and service providers to perform customer services. The Coalition touches the lives of thousands of Broward County children and families. While funding does not cover all of the identified unmet needs, we are constantly looking for innovative, additional funding sources. The Coalition strives to use all of its resources in the most effective and efficient manner possible.
