Best Beginnings is a public-private partnership that mobilizes people and resources to ensure all Alaska children begin school ready to succeed. We have many partners across the state working to see this become a reality. Each of the partners contributes to this through unique programs and efforts that, collectively, serve the whole child and their family.
Since its beginning in September 2006, Best Beginnings has consistently carried out our mission by investing funds, resources, time, and energy in growing readers, building strong families, and engaging community.
Our goal is to ensure parents and caregivers are reading with their children more, and increasing their knowledge of positive learning practices. We offer many programs to make that reality!
Including Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, kindergarten transition camps, weekly parent newsletters, free early learning activity booklets, and free family engagement events that model everyday early learning activities in safe and fun environments.
