Success By 6 is an early childhood initiative that works to ensure that all children from birth to 6 have the positive and enriching experiences necessary to begin school prepared to succeed.  Through data-tracking, advocacy, public awareness, and neighborhood-based programs, Success By 6 collaborates with its partners to positively impact community-indicators that lead to school readiness.
