City of Evansville (Office of the Mayor)
The Institute for Child Success will work with the City of Evansville, Indiana to assess whether Pay for Success (PFS) financing model could expand access to high quality preschool to the city’s two and three-year olds from low-income families. Approximately 2,000 could benefit from high-quality preschool, but are not enrolled. This project will focus on measuring and achieving increased kindergarten readiness. Evansville has displayed strong community investment and local business interest in the proposed PFS initiative, with the inclusion of project partners such as the SW Indiana Business Roundtable on Early Childhood Development.
ICS will provide 9-12 months of technical assistance to determine whether PFS financing is a feasible way to improve child outcomes. |
