Progress in Portland: “The ballot measure, dubbed Preschool for All, provides free, voluntary preschool for all 3- & 4-year-olds. It also increases the salary of preschool teachers, as well as classroom assistants...” via @ChelseaCirruzzo of @thelilynews thelily.com/these-moms-fou…

You might've heard about @PreschoolForAll's incredible success in Oregon's Multnomah country, and wondering just how it all works. @ehapsel dives in, and finds that it started with *parents.* Revolutionary! bit.ly/35bPyyk @Parentsmagazine @MomsRising @PreschoolToday

Must-read article on the problems @PreschoolForAll is addressing, including the fact that early childhood is unaffordable for many families, yet teachers are underpaid. Solution: Publicly fund a universal preschool program & increase teacher salaries. nytimes.com/2020/11/06/ups…

Preschool for All changed the status quo for early childhood education in the Portland area--and showed communities across the U.S. how it can be done. nytimes.com/2020/11/06/ups…

How do you build the support you need to pass such a big measure? You build it with the community from the start. @JVPforOregon joined @CBCEarlyEdition today to discuss how Preschool for All centered community voices to craft a groundbreaking policy. bit.ly/3mTdVXy

This was the most amazing grassroots campaign I’ve ever seen. And let’s be real: the long-term impact of this for Oregon kids and families will outlive the rest of tonight’s state results by a mile. This is the long game.

“Preschool for All has given me an opportunity as a parent to have a voice where I've never had a voice before. As a parent of Brown and Black children in Multnomah County, finding affordable preschool--finding free preschool--is like a miracle. Join me in voting yes.”
