Jumpstart’s accomplished Policy & Government Relations team knows inequitable policies are inhibiting learning outcomes for young children. To change this, our team is advocating for:

1. Fair, equitable compensation for early educators
2. Harsh discipline reform 
3. More affordable pathways to entering the early educator workforce as a certified educator, including affordable post-secondary opportunities available to all.
