PARENTING RESOURCES

The Alliance for Early Childhood
Glencoe Junior Kindergarten is proud to be a member of the The Alliance for Early Childhood, a community organization that promotes the healthy growth and development of children from birth to age eight by providing resources, programs, and support for the parents and professionals who teach and care for them.
​ 
Founded in 1989 as the Winnetka Alliance for Early Childhood, the Alliance changed its name to The Alliance for Early Childhood in 2011, in recognition of its growth well beyond the borders of Winnetka. Currently, we serve Winnetka, Northfield, Kenilworth, and neighboring communities on the North Shore of Chicago.
