Proposed Vision
An optimal early childhood system will enable all of Hawaii’s children to be loved, safe,
healthy and ready to succeed.
![Page 16: Hawaiis Early Learning System Looking at… ECE Task Force: Governance Committee.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051614/551a588a550346545e8b5848/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Proposed Mission
The optimal Early Learning System will… Provide equal opportunities for early learning,
health, social and family resources that are responsive to families.
Include services and programs that are respectful of the host culture, honor individual preferences, and offer high quality choices.
![Page 17: Hawaiis Early Learning System Looking at… ECE Task Force: Governance Committee.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051614/551a588a550346545e8b5848/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Proposed Goals
Coordinated and significant funding to sustain the Early Learning System
Hawaii’s citizens acknowledge and understand that the foundation of a child’s life is developed in the first eight years.
Families and communities are knowledgeable about children’s needs and how to foster healthy development and learning.
There is adequate availability of high quality child care spaces for all of Hawaii’s children.

Proposed Goals (cont’d)
Programs and services are available that support the whole child with regards to health, special needs, nutrition, physical development, safety and early learning.
Early Care and Education is recognized and valued as a viable profession. Compensation and benefits Support for continued professional development Access to high quality training
Data is available and shared in an effort to support system development and growth.

Proposed Guiding Principles
Young children learn while being cared for, thus education and care must not be considered separately.
Parents should be valued and supported as their child’s first teacher.
Families need to have access to quality early care and education program choices.
Limited resources should target underserved low income families first, since this intervention has proven the greatest return on our investment.

Proposed Guiding Principles
Programs are available and accessible to support parents as partners in meeting their child’s physical, health, emotional, social and cognitive needs.
High standards for program quality, health and safety, and professional training and development are established and maintained.
Skilled and knowledgeable early care and education practitioners are an essential key to quality; they must have access to education and training opportunities and receive equitable compensation opportunities to succeed.

Proposed Guiding Principles
Data (?)
Services are collaborative and seamless to consumers (i.e. parents and children) within the Early Learning System.
Mechanisms are in place for developing policies that include grassroots communities, service professionals, and public/private agencies to assure continued enhancement of the Early Learning System.
