Building the national play infrastructure for all children
For more than 25 years, Alliance for Childhood has worked to protect something essential to childhood: play. Now, we’re building on that legacy with Play For All — a national movement to make play possible for every child, in every community.
Together, we’re building the national play infrastructure for all children — the people, places, policies, and partnerships that make play possible. You are a part of this build.
A child’s future is today.

PEOPLE
We build a movement of caregivers, educators, playworkers, researchers, advocates, and community leaders who understand the importance of play and are working together to make it a priority for every child.
PLACES
We transform the spaces where children live, learn, and play by supporting schools, communities, and organizations in creating inclusive, equitable, engaging environments inviting exploration, creativity, and connection.
POLICIES
We create publications and advance research, advocacy, and policy solutions that recognize play as essential to childhood and ensure that communities have the knowledge and tools to protect every child’s right to play.
Connecting people, ideas, and action to strengthen our shared belief: every child has the right to play and every community has the power to protect it.
