Maine is one of 18 states receiving funding through the Preschool Development Grant program. This is the third year out of four that awards are given to states that are working with local communities to prepare the nation’s most vulnerable children for success in school and in life. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
