Upcoming Advocacy Days:
Building the Future: Understanding the Crisis in Early Childhood Education
Tuesday, August 4th, 2026
1:00PM PT/2:00PM MT/3:00 PM CT/4:00 PM ET
Free Registration: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_HGI9nvBTTyyKQsRt7rMY9g

Early childhood education is at a critical crossroads. Across the country, families struggle to find affordable, high-quality early learning opportunities while educators face persistent workforce shortages, inadequate compensation, and growing policy challenges. At the same time, multilingual children and dual language learners—one of the fastest-growing student populations in the United States—continue to bring tremendous linguistic and cultural assets that early learning systems too often fail to support.
Join the National Association for Bilingual Education (NABE) for an important conversation exploring the root causes of today’s early childhood education crisis, its far-reaching impact on children, families, educators, and communities, and the collective action needed to build a stronger future for every young learner.
