United Way Success By 6 enables communities to provide their children with the best opportunity to succeed by the time they begin school.

Years of research prove that attention to children's physical, mental and emotional development in early childhood is vital to their success. Working with public and private decision-makers, UWSB6 focuses on the needs of the whole child by addressing environmental and systemic issues that can influence development.

Over the past 15 years, this community-based, partnership approach has helped hundreds of thousands of children getting them ready for school, and ready for life. Ultimately, this directly contributes to the nation's educational success, economic strength and a qualified workforce.
