Claudia Miner: A new way to get every child ready for kindergarten (2019x162)

: 17, 2019

Early education is critical to children's success — but millions of kids in the United States still don't have access to programs that prepare them to thrive in kindergarten and beyond. Enter the UPSTART Project, a plan to bring early learning into the homes of children in underserved communities, at no cost to families. Education innovator Claudia Miner shares how UPSTART is setting four-year-olds up for success with 15 minutes of learning a day — and how you can help. (This ambitious plan is a part of the Audacious Project, TED's initiative to inspire and fund global change.)
