Fellowship Class of 2024-2026
We are thrilled to present our
2024-26 ZERO TO THREE Fellows!
The Fellows are a vibrant, diverse cohort of early and mid-career leaders who bring a broad range of expertise, skills and perspectives to their commitment to ensure infants and toddlers have a strong start in life.
Chosen through a highly competitive process, the Fellows will engage in an intensive 18-month fellowship designed to strengthen and expand their leadership capacity. The program focuses on transforming systems, policies and programs to promote equitable access and outcomes for young children and their caregivers. Addressing the complex challenges that affect early childhood requires bold, compassionate leaders who can mobilize diverse collaborators, partners and constituents to drive innovative, sustainable change.
For more than four decades, ZERO TO THREE has been the leading organization for professionals working to champion the well-being of the youngest members of our society. The Fellowship empowers a global network of transformative leaders dedicated to making the world a better place for early childhood development.
