Every Young Person Deserves the Chance to Achieve their Full Potential
We invest in a child’s future as early as birth by expanding access to tools that enhance their development, language, and literacy. We continue this support throughout their educational journey, bolstering both academic and real-world skills through initiatives such as tutoring and out-of-school programs.

of Arkansas children have parents and caregivers stretched too thin. By providing resources to youth who live below the ALICE threshold, we can close the opportunity gap and help them build happy, successful lives. Meet ALICE in Arkansas.
