• The Agency for Workforce Innovation’s Office of Early Learning serves as the lead entity in administering and supporting early learning and child care programs in Florida. Key federal and state legislation guide the state’s early learning system.
• The Agency’s early learning system framework align with the governor’s priorities for strengthening Florida’s families and ensuring access to quality early learning services for every child.
• The Agency dedicates its people and processes to ensuring the quality, availability, and affordability of child care supporting Florida’s children and families.
