educare centers in the nationwide bounce learning network
building high-quality early learning environments
The Buffett Early Childhood Fund and the Ounce of Prevention Fund in Illinois are working with partners in communities across America to create state-of-the-art Educare Centers to better prepare young children for success in school. Each Educare Center provides high-quality early care and education to 150-200 infants, toddlers and preschoolers growing up in low-income families. This network of Educare Centers — called the Bounce Learning Network — seeks to shape a new way of doing business when it comes to delivering early care and education to our nation’s most at-risk children and families. Plus, each Educare Center strives to serve as a catalyst for broader change throughout its community and state.
The Buffett Early Childhood Fund, Irving Harris Foundation and George Kaiser Family Foundation also combine resources in an Educare Replication Pool, which annually awards more than $1 million in capital grants to encourage communities to create Educare Centers.
