American Falls Early Learning Collaborative
The American Falls Early Learning Collaborative consists of stakeholders in Power County, Idaho, including the Joint American Falls School District, United Way of SE Idaho, Lighthouse Preschool, and St. John’s Preschool.
Strategic Direction
Idaho AEYC builds a cohesive and comprehensive Strategic Plan every five years. These plans are built through input from communities, Early Learning Collaboratives, and other partners to create a holistic approach on how we continue to expand early learning opportunities across Idaho.
Idaho AEYC's Strategic Priorities
All planning is developed through our strategic priorities.
High Quality Learning
Goal: Children birth through age 8 have access to developmentally appropriate, high-quality early learning.
Ready Idaho Coalition
Working to expand access to early learning opportunities for Idaho’s Children
The Ready Idaho Coalition is an advocacy group made up of Idaho organizations dedicated to creating a network of early childhood systems and programs that prepare our children for a successful start in school and life.
Build Your Collaborative
Getting kids ready for school means more than packing their lunches, filling their backpacks, and getting them to the bus on time.

Envisioning a Better Start for Our Youngest Idahoans
Advocacy
Public policies at the national, state, and local levels have a tremendous impact on the infrastructure needed to deliver quality early learning programs for all children. The work to gain access to proper funding to create not just physical infrastructure, but compensation for the services provided by early educators and child care professionals, is vitally important and it starts with you.
Ways to Give
With your partnership, we can make great strides in advancing the quality of early childhood education for all young children and families across Idaho. We are grateful to have you by our side as we work towards a brighter future for Idaho’s children.
Membership
At Idaho AEYC, we offer an opportunity for Early Childhood Educators to join our professional membership to provide opportunities to learn more about quality early learning. Early Educators work every day to make a difference by providing quality learning opportunities for children and their families. With a membership, we will connect you to our expanding network of other early educators across the state, as well as provide professional development opportunities.
