The Ounce Policy Update asks states to look forward to the upcoming state legislative session and share their policy priorities, political challenges, and opportunities. The Policy Mini Update provides a snapshot of what happened during the most recent state legislative sessions, along with policy updates since the last full Policy Update was published.
The National Policy Spotlight is a newsletter that shares up-to-date and noteworthy developments in state and federal early childhood news, policy and funding changes, research, policy trends and analyses, upcoming events, etc. culled from diverse sources in the field.
For questions, comments and suggestions for improvement (for either the Policy Update or the National Policy Spotlight), please email our National Policy Team.
