Description:
In 2022, voters in New Orleans, LA, passed a property tax levy that, along with state matching funds, will provide early childhood education to 2,000 children from low-income households annually. The measure will nearly cut in half the number of infants and toddlers in New Orleans from low-income families without access to quality early care and education. In addition to early learning center seats for children younger than 4 years old, the program will provide child and family support services, coaching and professional development for teachers, and expand the supply of quality early learning centers.
