Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program

ECEAP (Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program) is Washington's pre-kindergarten program for low-income 3- and 4-year-old children and their families. To promote school success, ECEAP provides preschool education, family support, and health and nutrition services. Research shows high-quality early learning programs like ECEAP save states money over the long run by reducing the need for remedial services in schools, social services, and criminal justice.
