DenverPreschoolProgram

Denver Preschool Program (DPP) makes quality preschool possible for all Denver families with 4-year-olds and qualifying 3-year-olds. We are committed to strengthening and funding the early childhood experience, advocating for policies and programs that equitably advance early childhood education, and leading quality initiatives and support for providers. DPP is funded by a dedicated sales tax first approved by voters in 2006, renewed and expanded in 2014, and permanently reauthorized in 2023. Since 2006, DPP has provided more than $184 million in tuition support to nearly 78,000 children to attend the preschool of their family’s choice, establishing each child’s foundation for lifelong learning and success.
