Craven Smart Start

North Carolina’s youngest children, families, and early childhood educators will benefit from a new $14.8 million investment in early childhood initiatives. The funding will expand access to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, strengthen pathways to grow the child care workforce, and increase behavioral and mental health supports for children and those who care for them. Learn how this investment will help build a stronger early childhood system for communities across the state. https://www.smartstart.org/2026-state-budget/
