Tandem Partners in Early Literacy

Organization Description

Our mission is to co-create equitable, high-quality early experiences. Tandem® works alongside school districts, early care and education providers, and community-based organizations. Using multilingual, multicultural picture books as the starting point, Tandem supports learning across literacy, language, math, social-emotional learning, and more. Tandem works with partner organizations across three program areas: StoryCycles®, Early Learning Everywhere, and Network Capacity Building. Programs serve children in school and throughout the community while also strengthening the overall ecosystem through professional development and resource sharing.
