Innovative Solutions Support

At Connect.Ed, we provide practical help for early childhood services to create supportive and inclusive environments.  

Innovative Solutions Support is a stream of funding available to eligible early childhood education and care services through the Inclusion Support Program. It provides funding for flexible and tailored inclusion support that goes beyond the scope of support that can be provided by Inclusion Agencies.

Support Tailored to Your Unique Needs

Our team works directly with you, offering tailored advice and support to address specific challenges in your care environment.
