B4 Early Years Coalition
B4 works through a collective impact, driving community action to achieve better outcomes for our young children and their families. B4 connects, supports, engages with, and encourages individuals and organisations to work together to ensure all children in Tasmania can reach their potential.
Our vision is to see every child in Tasmania cared for and nurtured through their early years, no matter what.
Our three goals are to ensure that:
- Everyone values the early years and is aware of and understands the importance and lifelong benefits of strong healthy development during this period.
- Everyone supports the early years and has the skills, knowledge, resources and a role to support children, their families and communities; and
- Everyone works together for the early years to ensure families, services, business and communities have the knowledge, skills and confidence to partner and ensure all children get the best possible start in life.

The B4 Early Years Coalition
Why B4?
No single policy, government department, organisation, program, community or family can ensure every child in Tasmania gets a great start, the early years needs a Collective Impact approach. From the very moment a life begins, a child’s experiences and environments will shape their lifelong learning, health and development. By working together, Tasmanians can create strong positive communities that support families to provide experiences and environments that allow their children to thrive. Every effort – however small – that helps to ensure every child has the very best start to life, creates a better Tasmania for us all.
The early years are everybody 's business.
