What we do:

In 2008 Colchester, Connecticut was awarded a grant by the Connecticut Early Childhood Education Cabinet to develop a community plan that would benefit the children of Colchester, from birth through age 8. This marked the beginning of the Collaborative for Colchester's Children (C3).

C3 is a group that focuses on four strategy areas that will benefit our town's children and provide our youngest citizens with opportunities to succeed.

The Collaborative meets six times per year as a whole group. Meetings are open to the public. Parents are encouraged to attend and share their concerns and views.
