of a child's brain develops before age three.
Before a child ever enters a classroom, the foundation is laid.
The emotional, social and physical development of young children has a direct effect on their overall development and on the adult they will become. That is why investing in the education and development of very young child is so important to maximize their future well-being.
The Family Resource Guide
Our directory of services across the region — food, housing, health, child care, financial help, and more, gathered in one place. Free to any Montana family or partner agency.
