NEIGHBORHOOD VILLAGES INC
Mission Statement
Neighborhood Villages (NV) is a Massachusetts systems-change non-profit working to create a future in which all families have access to affordable, high-quality early childhood education (ECE). Despite the critical role ECE plays in the lives and prospects of children and families, it has long been undervalued in the United States and, as a result, the sector has been starved of the resources it needs to provide quality programming at affordable rates to families with young children (ages 0-5). NV’s mission is to transform our existing, inadequate ECE sector into an equitable, accessible high-quality system and to demonstrate that achieving such a system is possible.
