About

First Things First, Arizona’s early childhood state agency, partners with families and communities to give all Arizona children the opportunity to arrive at kindergarten healthy and ready to succeed.  Created by voters, FTF funds programs and services that support quality child care and preschool, early literacy, strengthening families, and the healthy development of children from birth to age 5. Community volunteers, serving on local councils, take a thoughtful approach to how funds are invested in each community. Learn more at FirstThingsFirst.org.
