About Us
Revolutionizing early education. And childhood outcomes.
Responsive relationships shape their future.
Too many children miss out on the brain-building conversations they need during the critical first five years. At LENA, we believe this is one of early childhood’s most solvable challenges. Our early talk tools and programs help adults boost positive interactions, building smarter children and stronger communities.
Our Mission and Vision
Our mission is to transform children’s futures through early talk technology and data-driven programs.
We envision a world where every child benefits from positive relationships full of responsive interactions that unlock their full potential.
