Childcare: A Growing Crisis

The U.S. Surgeon General warns that caring for young children, without proper support, can have long-term impacts on families' mental health. Your donation will help provides resources that:

• Strengthen our teachers' skills

All Children Get a Strong Start Here

Minnesota has one of the largest academic opportunity gaps in the nation, with only 31% of Black students meeting reading proficiency standards and just 20% excelling in math compared to their white peers. These numbers highlight the deep inequities in our education system, but there is hope.

Research shows that high-quality early childhood education is the most effective way to bridge this gap.

At YWCA Minneapolis, our Early Childhood Education centers ensure that every child, regardless of background, has a strong start. In fact, there is no academic opportunity gap here - and with 80% of our students being children of color, we are actively shaping a more equitable future.
