California State University Long Beach (CSULB) and California State University, Dominguez Hills (CSUDH) today announced $33 million in funding from the Ballmer Group, a philanthropic organization, to support programs designed to address the shortage of early childhood educators (ECE).

These grants are intended to help close the emerging ECE teacher gap as well as provide living wage jobs for these educators.
