America’s Edge

America’s Edge is a national business leaders organization with over 800 members, who advocate for evidence-based programs for children and youth that get kids on track to succeed, as well as have positive economic outcomes for American businesses.

Americaʼs Edge is currently focused on two policy areas: investments in quality early care and education and ensuring a more skilled and better educated workforce through career-themed models in our nationʼs high schools. Both of these policy priorities are key components to reverse the widening “skills gaps” that so many of our members are experiencing and which we know could slow our economic recovery.

Our members educate policy-makers and the public about these high-quality investments by sharing their views through earned media, participating in press events and private meetings with policy-makers.
