Every community’s future begins with
how we support our youngest children.
Help Me Grow is not a stand-alone program—it is a system approach that strengthens what already exists.
By bringing partners together around shared goals, communities can maximize resources,
avoid duplication, and ensure children get the right support at the right time.
When families, healthcare, and early learning systems work together, all children can thrive.
Strong early childhood systems—across health care, education, and family services—
are the foundation for thriving children and families. Help Me Grow strengthens these systems by
integrating services, reducing fragmentation, and ensuring families can access support without barriers.
Our success depends on a shared vision and consistent ways of measuring progress.
With leaders across sectors at the table, we establish common goals, align values,
and drive a unified agenda that promotes the healthy development of every child.
Help Me Grow is more than a model—it is a movement powered by collaboration, shared purpose, and the belief that all children deserve the chance to reach their full potential.
