Our Story

It’s been said before that simple change can bring about tremendous results. It’s often the slightest shift, the smallest adjustment, or the most unexpected turn that will lead to powerful transformation. So it is with the issues facing the children of Memphis and Shelby County.

Through data-driven research and result-oriented initiatives, we have discovered that many of these problems can be solved by making a few easy changes during the critical ages of zero to three. Yes, 0-3.
