Collective Impact

Early Matters Dallas is a broad-based coalition of business, civic, education, philanthropic and nonprofit organizations and volunteers, working together to raise awareness about, and advocate for, the importance of high quality early education for a strong economy tomorrow. Early Matters leaders continuously advocate for increased financial resources allocated to this critical, high return-on-investment area. In partnership with other Early Matters regions across Texas including Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Waco, and El Paso, we work to align efforts and advocate for the children of Texas– 40% of whom live in our regions.
