Children’s Institute is a Portland-based nonprofit focused on improving outcomes for Oregon’s children through work that aims to create a just and equitable environment for kids and families. Since its founding in 2003, the organization has emphasized recognizing and addressing policies and practices that fail to meet the needs of children of color and those in rural communities, with the goal of shifting systems toward greater justice. The institute operates within the nonprofit sector, collaborating on training and capacity-building for early learning and childhood initiatives, and has pursued partnerships to scale its programs, including recent collaboration with Promise Venture Studio to expand its Early Learning Academy in Oregon school districts. Its activities are grounded in a mission to support vulnerable populations and inform policy and practice related to early childhood care and education. Based in Portland, Oregon, the organization serves a community-oriented mission through a regional focus on children and families.” } ]} } { } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } }
