“A child’s early years hold the key to their success,” says Erin Hannigan, Solano County District 1 Supervisor and First 5 Solano Commissioner. “Investing in early childhood development means funding programs and innovative strategies for children from birth to age 5 that strengthen families, improve the quality of early learning environments, and promote prevention and early identification of health problems that can impact learning later on.”
The purpose of the annual grants program is to provide an opportunity for the First 5 Solano Commission to consider grant requests that fill community gaps, address a community disparity, or address a time sensitive community need. The funding is also intended to help support the startup of projects and programs that can become sustained in the community.
All projects proposed for the Annual Grants Fund must support First 5 Solano’s mission to promote, support and improve the lives of young children, their families and their communities.
