Our Impact

Since 2006, Denver Preschool Program has been making preschool possible for many Denver children, especially those who are more marginalized. From higher graduation rates among preschool attendees to more disposable income for their families, the benefits of quality preschool are undeniable. Through continuous research and studies, Denver Preschool Program is proud to share our impact over the last 20 years and the learnings that will inform our next 20 years.

About Denver Preschool Program

For nearly two decades, Denver Preschool Program has been reshaping early childhood education in Denver and beyond. Funded by a city sales tax that was twice reauthorized and then renewed permanently, we provide tuition support to families with 4-year-olds and many with 3-year-olds while also investing in the quality and capacity of preschool programs throughout Denver. Steadfast and committed, we are proud of our past and focused on continuing to strengthen the early childhood experience.
