Play Equity
What is play equity?
The primary focus of play equity is to create conditions that allow children to reach their full potential through engaging in unstructured play. Our goal is to help create a framework that allows children to reach their full potential, eliminating disparities in race, income, ability, geography, gender and sexual orientation.
​
We work to create positive relationships and partnerships with families, educators, leaders and community agencies to increase play opportunities for babies and young children.

Throughout the pandemic, socio-economic and racial inequities will continue to grow; but we can work together as a community to ensure those most vulnerable will not fall through the cracks.

Supplies for PreK Students in Wards 7 & 8
Unfortunately, not all schools in DCPS have been given the same supplies for distance learning. Some schools in Wards 7 & 8 are still without electronic devices and basic supplies and not all have the ability to purchase on their own. This Amazon list was compiled with direction from the Early Childhood Team at a school in Ward 8.
