The Legislature finds and declares both of the following: (a) The stateâs system of early learning and care must become more integrated and coordinated to achieve its goals of promoting a high-quality, affordable, early childhood system designed to comprehensively and effectively serve children and families. (b) Social determinants of health, adverse childhood experiences, quality learning and care for children, and economic and other supports for the needs of families are critical determinants of life outcomes for children, and Californiaâs system of early learning and care must address inequities and disproportionalities.
