Children hold a sacred place in the cultures of Indigenous peoples. With that comes a sacred responsibility to care for them. High-quality, culturally-specific and well-supported early learning and child care (ELCC) programs, services and supports that are specifically designed for and with Indigenous families and communities will make a genuine difference in the early experiences of children. High-quality Indigenous ELCC programming provides educational opportunities and school readiness and contributes to their overall health and wellness from early years into adulthood.
