Bolstering Early Childhood Through the American Rescue Plan Act

Thursday, April 29th, 2021 from 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm Eastern Time

On April 29th at 2pm Eastern Time the Institute for Child Success (ICS) will partner with the National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA) to co-host a webinar. This event will highlight how jurisdictions can apply an equity lens when working to deploy the funding coming to states and other territories via the American Rescue Plan Act. Expert panelists will include Gina Adams from the Urban Institute, New York City’s Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) Commissioner David Hansell, and Leslie Totten with the Tempe Preschool Research Expansion (PRE). They will each share their experiences regarding the impact of systemic inequities in their respective fields, and make recommendations on how the Act’s funds should be used strategically to work against inequities and build lasting change that improves outcomes for children.
