The North Carolina Early Childhood Action Plan outlines a cohesive vision, sets benchmarks for impact by the year 2025, and establishes shared stakeholder accountability to achieve statewide goals for young children from birth through age 8.

The plan centers on three themes: that North Carolina’s young children are healthy, grow up safe and nurtured, and are well-supported to be learning and ready to succeed. It presents a bold vision, focusing on improving outcomes related to children’s health, safety and well-being, and developmental and academic readiness.
