UNITED WAY OF MONMOUTH COUNTY JOINS PRE-K OUR WAY IN ADVOCATING FOR THE EXPANSION OF PRESCHOOL IN NEW JERSEY
Pre-K Our Way announced today that the United Way of Monmouth County (UWMC) has joined more than 50 New Jersey community-focused and statewide organizations, alongside with Pre-K Our Way, in advocating for the expansion of effective, high-quality preschool programs in our communities.
Led by its President and CEO, Timothy C. Hearne, Jr, UWMC has worked to improve the lives of people in Monmouth County by mobilizing the caring power of its community. Its work centers on education, income and health: three areas that are the building blocks for a good life and the foundation for a thriving, prosperous community.

“Pre-K Our Way is excited to have the United Way of Monmouth County join us as an advocate for expanding high-quality pre-k in New Jersey,” said Sam Crane, of Pre-K Our Way. “The United Way’s mission of improving people’s lives through mobilizing communities falls directly in line with Pre-K Our Way’s goal of engaging stakeholders and communities to spread the word about the importance of pre-k and the need to offer the program to more three- and four-year-old children in communities throughout New Jersey.”
Existing state law calls for the expansion of New Jersey’s proven, high-quality preschool programs from fewer than 40 towns to 90 more communities across New Jersey. Pre-K Our Way is a nonpartisan, nonprofit effort to bring New Jersey’s effective, high-quality preschool program to each of our communities. Pre-K Our Way wants to expand the quality preschool model for three- to four-year-olds that New Jersey already has by fully implementing the law.
