Seattle Preschool Program students and lead teacher at Hoa Mai Vietnamese Bilingual School. Since 2018, DEEL has participated in Children’s Funding Project’s voter-approved children’s fund community of practice. The community of practice connects DEEL with a national network of more than 25 peer cities and counties who steward local funding to benefit children, youth, and families. Participants share best practices for service delivery, legislative advocacy, grant-making, evaluation, and more.

In a recent blog post, Children’s Funding Project highlighted Seattle and the FEPP Levy, alongside Cincinnati, Ohio, and two Colorado counties, seeking to renew or launch children’s funds. We invite you to learn more about how other national leaders leverage voter-approved tax funds to support child and youth success!
