Advocacy Overview

The Movement is focused on making Florida’s children, especially in their early years, a top priority in our state.

We do this by promoting smart policies, impactful investments and helpful resources for young children and families.

 

 

 

We meet regularly with Florida senators and representatives–in their offices at the Capitol and in their home districts–to share the importance of the first five years and policies geared at supporting young children and families. We participate in legislative delegation meetings, where legislators in each county hear from the public pressing issues that should be focused on during the upcoming session. We want to make sure high-quality early learning, health care and support for parents is part of the conversation.

During election years, we focus on connecting with candidates across the political spectrum. When freshman legislators understand early childhood development, they can hit the ground running and make decisions on issues that matter.
