For a century, early childhood policy has been premised on a myth. This falsehood―which dictates that child care and education are somehow separate and distinct―not only suboptimizes the most important window into all human development but costs taxpayers an untold fortune. It’s time to think differently. Join Dr. Dan Wuori, one of the field’s most respected non-partisan policy experts, as he makes a case for why the early years matter, why our longstanding early childhood policy approaches sacrifice the needs of young children in favor of promoting adult employment, and why fixing the problem makes good sense, regardless of your place on the political spectrum. With straightforward guidance for policymakers, practitioners, and parents, Dr. Wuori’s timely message is a wake-up call that aspires to nothing less than the wholesale transformation of our early childhood landscape.
