Joyful Spaces: Transforming ECE in St. Louis with Peer Champions

Launched in winter of 2023-24, Joyful Spaces promotes quality early childhood education (ECE) facilities in the St. Louis, Missouri area. Since the program's launch, the Joyful Spaces Peer Champions (Champions) have participated in trainings about what makes for quality ECE facilities, and they have pursued facility improvement projects that are transforming the city’s #ECE community. A recent James S. McDonnell Foundation feature highlighted IFF's Joyful Spaces program, which Gateway Early Childhood Alliance also helps administer, and spotlighted some of the inspiring Champions that are supporting St. Louis's youngest learners.
