Our Programs

  • Parent Support Group

    The ECA has made it a mission to not only support the needs of our early learners but the families taking care of our children.

    Early Childhood programs and resources are important to the healthy development of young children and their preparedness for elementary school.

  • Events

    The Early Childhood Alliance hosts regular Outreach events in a variety of locations in the Niles Township community.

  • English Family literacy class

    Through the English literacy class, we are enhancing parents’ knowledge and use of the English language so they can better navigate everyday tasks in the community, support their child’s development and success in school.

  • Car seat access program with Lurie Children’s Hospital

    In partnership with Laurie Children’s Hospital, the ECA brings car seat advocacy to our families of Niles Township with reduced prices for a brand new car seat!

  • Open Play

    Through drop in open playtime, early learners, and their families can be in the space up to twice a week with access to tools and resources to engage intentionally at ECA headquarters.

How Does the ECA Serve the Families of Niles Township?

The ECA is working to ensure equitable access to early childhood information, resources and programs – and access to the languages most spoken by families is a priority. We support the advancement of the Niles Township Community (Skokie, Lincolnwood, Golf and part of Morton Grove, Niles and  Glenview), by aligning systems and creating better access to resources.

We believe in the power of grassroots outreach and collective impact centered in equity.
