Skill building services for at-risk toddlers and preschoolers
Mind the Gap partners with public and private organizations to strengthen early language, emotional regulation, and school readiness through systems-level support.
Who We Partner With
We work alongside agencies serving preschool-aged children whose development is shaped by poverty, chronic stress, and limited access to resources.
What We Do
Program Development
Trauma-informed, language-rich programming designed for real-world early childhood systems.
Consultation & Technical Assistance
Ongoing support to help staff address complex developmental and behavioral needs through shared frameworks and practical strategies.
Professional Development and Training
Targeted training that translates research into actionable tools educators can use immediately.
Our Approach
Our work sits at the intersection of early language development, emotional regulation, and trauma-informed practice. We understand behavior as communication and regulation as foundational to learning.
Why Mind the Gap
Many early childhood systems are asked to meet developmental expectations that do not align with the lived realities of children growing up in poverty.
Mind the Gap was created to help agencies bridge this disconnect by supporting staff with clear, trauma-informed frameworks and sustainable strategies that strengthen outcomes without adding burden.
