The Natural Start Alliance follows and supports Outdoor and Nature-Based (ONB) childcare and preschool licensing efforts around the country, connecting advocates, state agencies, and other policymakers around ONB policy with the goal of improving equitable access to outdoor and nature-based experiences across early care and education. The map below represents Natural Start's current knowledge of state-based ONB licensing engagement, but may not reflect the full scope of work taking place.
