Education Development Center

Thank you to everyone who joined yesterday's conversation on Capitol Hill about the lasting impact and future of Ready To Learn, including EDC's own Shelley Pasnik, Sara DeWitt of PBS KIDS, Susan Goldberg of GBH Boston, Becky Magura of Nashville PBS, and Ed Ulman of Alaska Public Media (AKPM)

Hosted by America's Public Television Stations, the event brought together leaders in research, public media, and local broadcasting to reflect on more than three decades of evidence showing how educational media and community partnerships expand learning opportunities for children and families who need them most.

The conversation highlighted the extraordinary impact of the Ready To Learn program and the critical role local public media stations play in bringing high-quality educational content to families across the country, from Boston and Nashville to rural Alaska.

We're grateful to the panelists, partners, and attendees who helped celebrate the impact of Ready To Learn and explore what's possible for the next generation of learners.
