New Programmatic Partnership: MOMS Teams Up with Too Small to Fail on Services Integrating Maternal Mental Health and Early Literacy Promotion

May 20, 2019

With work underway in New York City, the MOMS Partnership® is teaming up with Too Small to Fail, the early childhood initiative of the Clinton Foundation that promotes early brain and language development through a public awareness and action campaign across the country called “Talking is Teaching: Talk, Read, Sing.” Starting with a collaboration around MOMS in New York City, the partnership will explore opportunities to pioneer a model that integrates early childhood literacy and maternal mental health services for the first time on a national level. The novel approach will look to promote healthy bonding between mothers and children with a particular focus on children’s early social-emotional and language development.

The MOMS Partnership and Too Small to Fail share a commitment to meeting families where they are and will work together to promote family well-being and early childhood development through community locations in NYC.
