Abstract	Invest Early is a comprehensive early childhood collaborative of four school districts in Itasca County, Minnesota, that serves young children and their families with risk factors that may impede school success. Wilder Research, in conjunction with the Invest Early leadership team and staff, is conducting a longitudinal evaluation of the program. Annual reports document the implementation and assessment of Invest Early and outcomes for the service system, families, and children. Year 10 (2014-15) is defined as May 21, 2014 through May 20, 2015. In year 10, 494 children age 5 and younger and 426 families participated in Invest Early. Of the children served, 16 percent were infants or toddlers (age 2 or younger), 19 percent were preschool age (age 3), and 65 percent were prekindergarten (age 4 or older on September 1, 2014). Most (78%) are white. Invest Early families had a median income of $22,073 per year this year. Over a third (38%) of children live in single-parent households. This summary presents highlights of the year 10 evaluation. [For "Invest Early, Early Childhood Initiative. Year 9 Evaluation Summary," see ED612506.] (ERIC).
