The ZERO TO THREE Policy Center is excited to launch a new opportunity with states interested in building their capacity to advance family-centered policies and systems that support families with children prenatal to three.
A family sits together outside. Mother, Father and Toddler.

Five states were selected to participate in the Built for Babies technical assistance project beginning in July 2023 through November 2025:

  • Arizona
  • Kansas
  • Mississippi
  • Montana
  • Tennessee

Project activities will include an in-person cross-team meeting, individualized technical assistance and virtual peer learning opportunities specific to each states’ context, and a stipend to support policy goals. More information about the goals of the project can be found in the request for application.
