Foundation For Early Childhood Education

The Foundation for Early Childhood Education Inc. is a nonprofit organization based in Pasadena, California, dedicated to providing quality child care services, education, and nutrition programs to low-income families. Established in 1965 by a group of Teacher Directors from cooperative nursery schools, the Foundation emphasizes self-esteem, self-sufficiency, and cultural understanding in its approach to early childhood education.

Administering programs such as Head Start and State Preschool, the organization also offers a full-day Child Development Center and a Parent Education Project, funded by various governmental bodies. Its innovative initiatives include pioneering a federal demonstration project that supports continuity in children's education from Head Start through the third grade.
