Chatham Early Childhood Community Needs Assessment
Alongside our Community Partners, Chatham County Partnership for Children launched an Early Childhood Community Needs Assessment that will shape an Early Childhood Action Plan for Chatham grounded in the perspectives of real members of our community.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to the Community Assessment!
We could not have done this without you, our community! We heard YOUR voices, and now have a better understanding of the challenges, needs, aspirations, and priorities so that we can make plans that serves YOU.
​
Stay tuned for a final report of the Community Assessment!

Early Childhood Action Plan
Chatham County Partnership for Children will be basing our Chatham Early Childhood Action Plan, or ECAP, on the results of our Community Needs Assessment. The ECAP will be grounded in the real needs of Chatham children and their parents and caregivers. Please click below to learn more about the Chatham County's Early Childhood Action Plan framework!
