We help young children grow up healthy and ready to learn
We have more than two decades of experience funding innovative programs and advocating for policies that produce better futures for our children.
First 5 Alameda County is an innovative public entity created by passage of Proposition 10 in 1998.
Every extra year of exposure to a positive childhood environment makes a significant impact on long-term outcomes.
