What We Do

GEEARS' mission is to support high-quality early learning and healthy development for Georgia's youngest children from birth to five by championing policies, promoting innovative and evidence-based practices and building public will. We work across the state of Georgia to align and mobilize key stakeholders in the business, civic, and legislative communities as well to engage providers, parents, and other advocacy organizations for collective impact. In addition, we create statewide public awareness of the importance of high quality early education through a campaign strategy that includes paid, earned, and social media. Our policy agenda includes a focus on funding and investments, quality improvements and systems change through innovation, and access and affordability of health care and high quality programs.

GEEARS is proud to be a leading advocate, thought partner and information source on early education in Georgia.
