The Senate Resolution commends Geaux Far Louisiana for its significant role in establishing an equitable and unified early childhood system in the state. Founded in 2021, this cross-sector coalition focuses on advocating for the needs of children from prenatal to age four, ensuring that families have access to high-quality early childhood development, health, and educational services. Geaux Far Louisiana has set five goals to achieve this vision and collaborates with various Louisiana-based organizations to implement specific objectives that align with their mission.
In recognition of its efforts, the resolution designates March 24, 2026, as Geaux Far Louisiana Day at the Louisiana State Capitol. The resolution emphasizes the importance of healthy families and young children as foundational elements for thriving communities and economic vitality in Louisiana. It encourages individuals to become "Champions for Children" by advocating for legislative policies that support early childhood development and improve outcomes for young learners across the state. A copy of the resolution will be sent to the Geaux Far Louisiana Coalition to acknowledge their contributions.
