Bright Beginnings is a nonprofit that uses a whole-child, two-generation approach to promote the long-term development and success of children and families experiencing housing instability in Washington, DC.  

 Our early learning centers offer full-day, year-round and developmentally-appropriate early childhood education for children from birth to five years old, at no cost to their families. In addition, our home-based program offers support for children and families in their home environments, along with specialized resources for pregnant mothers.  

 Bright Beginnings offers comprehensive wrap-around services to both children and their parents with the goal of supporting families as they journey toward upward mobility.
