Growing Up New Mexico

Growing Up New Mexico Growing Up NM: The Early Childhood Partnership is focused on early education policy and programs Our sole focus is early childhood education and care.

Through a sequential pipeline of opportunities, our programs bring the community together to plan, advocate, and to provide programs, prenatal to age five. Our children become more successful in school and in life, our families become more resilient, our community becomes stronger both now and in the future. Our policy branch works with state government, private partners, and community stakeholder
