The Philadelphia Parent Innovation institute will bring early childhood organizations and the families they serve together to learn human-centered design so they can strengthen family engagement in early literacy and language programs for Philadelphia’s youngest learners.
Between April 2020-May 2021, organization representatives and parents they support will work collaboratively in small teams and identify a challenge they would like to solve together. The teams will be guided through a design process that involves co-designing and rapid-cycle learning to create high impact solutions that support quality early childhood experiences — and meet the real needs of families with young children.
After the institute, teams will work with a local continuity partner, First Up, to continue to support an ecosystem of innovative family engagement in Philadelphia.

The Early Learning Lab works to ensure children’s healthy development and kindergarten readiness. We identify and spread smart innovations and technology solutions that equip parents, caregivers, and teachers with better ways to help children from birth to age 5, when it matters most.
