The Florida School Readiness program provides financial assistance to low-income families to help their children access quality early education. It aims to prepare children for success in school by supporting their developmental, educational, and social needs. The program offers resources for parents, including information on choosing early learning providers, and emphasizes the importance of early childhood education in building a strong foundation for lifelong learning. Through partnerships with local providers, the initiative seeks to ensure that all children in Florida have the opportunity to thrive before entering kindergarten.
