About
Our Program
A New Chapter for Early Learning — Help Make It Successful
During the pandemic, You Be You Early Learning (YbY) brought education directly to children through a classroom on wheels, ensuring families could access high-quality early learning when they needed it most. That innovative model removed barriers of cost, transportation, and access — and it changed lives.
Now, as communities rebuild and reconnect, YbY is entering an exciting new chapter.
In 2026, YbY will open its first stationary, community-focused classroom, creating a welcoming, consistent space where children can learn, grow, and build the strong foundation they deserve. While the format is evolving, the mission remains the same: delivering inclusive, no-cost early childhood education to families who need it most.
This transition is a major milestone — and it requires community support to ensure success.
