Through Smart Start funds, the Robeson County Partnership For Children helps to provide services for children, birth to age 5, and their families in our community.  The goal is to ensure that young children enter school healthy and ready to succeed.

In 1993, North Carolina Governor Jim Hunt founded Smart Start, North Carolina’s nationally recognized and award-winning early childhood initiative.  It was designed to ensure that ALL young children, 0-5, enter school healthy and ready to succeed.

Smart Start is a public-private initiative that provides early education funding to all of the state’s 100 counties. Smart Start funds are administered at the local level through local nonprofit organizations such as the Robeson County Partnership for Children, Inc.  Services offered reflect documented community needs.  Currently, the Robeson County Partnership for Children, Inc. has 10 funded activities.
