Chicago's hub for
early childhood
research
For every child and family in Chicago.
We partner with Chicago’s early childhood community to produce and facilitate action-oriented research toward equitable solutions for early childhood policy and practice.
Partnerships are the
cornerstone of EC*REACH
EC*REACH connects people in Chicago’s early childhood ecosystem: researchers, city and community leaders, families, and providers. Together, we spark new collaborations, identify pressing questions, share insights, and design relevant and rigorous research.
