Buncombe Partnership for Children is on a mission to strengthen the capacity of educators, families, and the community to build a strong foundation for children’s learning and development beginning at birth. The majority of brain development happens during the first 2,000 days—the 5 years between birth and kindergarten—forming the foundation for all future learning. This is why Buncombe Partnership for Children invests in children from ages birth to 5 years old and their families, caretakers, and educators by partnering with local organizations to:
- improve the quality of early childhood education;
- increase access to affordable, high quality early care;
- expand early literacy opportunities;
- encourage healthy eating, physical activity, and outdoor play; and,
- provide family support. Our vision is that every child in our community will reach their fullest potential and be prepared for lifelong success.
