The Right from the Start video series includes four short videos that support our vision to help build a strong early childhood system in Connecticut. 

Hosting a community screening of these videos offers an opportunity to bring people together to converse and identify the best approaches to improving our state's early childhood system. 

We offer a complete video toolkit and topic guides to prompt and guide productive conversations.
