Smart Start Partnership for Children is a Henderson County, North Carolina-based nonprofit organization focused on early childhood development. It works with local partners to improve the quality of early education, expand access to affordable, high-quality child care, provide families with tools to support healthy development, and broaden early literacy opportunities so children start school ready to learn. The organization serves young children and their families, addressing gaps in preparation for kindergarten and supporting families during the early years. Established as part of the North Carolina Smart Start network, it operates within a public-private framework designed to empower local communities to determine effective approaches to improving early childhood outcomes. A recent development highlighted by local media is the launch of Family Connects Henderson County in 2021, a pilot program offering virtual nurse home visits to families with newborns.
