ELQN's Mission
ELQN partners believe that every child deserves a strong start. By collaborating with community members who know their neighborhoods best, we work to develop quality improvement strategies that reflect local values, needs, and resources. Supported by the Harris County Department of Economic Equity and Opportunity, ELQN aims to unite communities in creating lasting and meaningful changes in early childhood education.
