BUNCOMBE PARTNERSHIP FOR CHILDREN

Buncombe Partnership for Children is on a mission to strengthen the capacity of educators, families, and the community to build a strong foundation for children's learning and development beginning at birth... We are a member of the Smart Start Network, which was created in 1993 as an innovative solution to a problem: children were coming to school unprepared to learn. Policymakers recognized that progress would require tapping into the same innovative spirit that inspires private sector advances and established Smart Start as a public/private partnership. Independent, private organizations work in all 100 counties in the state through the North Carolina Partnership for Children and 75 local partnerships, including Buncombe Partnership for Children. The power of Smart Start is that it delivers outcomes by giving communities local control to determine the best approach to achieving them.
