Abstract
About this title: A growing number of economists are worried about our investments in early childhood. Not because we’re spending too much but because we’re spending too little where it matters most.
Nobel laureate economist James Heckman, former Federal Reserve vice president Arthur Rolnick and others help viewers understand how investing in high-quality early care and education can yield huge individual and social benefits and pays for itself many times over.
How crazy are we about our kids? Are we willing to invest today – or resigned to paying more tomorrow?
About the series: The Raising of America, by the producers of Unnatural Causes: Is Inequality Making Us Sick? and Race - The Power of an Illusion, is an ambitious documentary series, online learning hub and public engagement campaign which aims to reframe the way Americans look at early child health and development. It illustrates how a strong start for all our kids leads not only to better learning, earning, and physical and mental health but also to a healthier, safer, better educated, more prosperous nation.
