Advocate for Education
Why support our Public Policy work in the area of Education?
At United Way of America, our goal is to advance the common good through the promotion of quality education, stable income, and good health for everyone. In education this means helping children and youth achieve their potential through participation in the best early childhood education programs available. Early childhood education is one of the United Way system’s top priorities, and United Way of America strongly urges federal support for comprehensive, effective programs to address this vital issue. As Congress and the President make reauthorization and appropriations decisions on early childhood education programs, United Way of America recommends adherence to the following principles: 1) High quality inputs and performance standards; and 2) Broad accessibility and availability.
