Did you know there are over 18,000 children under the age of five in the greater Elgin area? 34% are living in low-income families. 5,500 children are eligible for free early care and education programs…but only 32% can be served because we don’t have enough slots. The rest of the children are at risk of falling behind and not being ready for kindergarten.
