Sesame Street & Smart Start Transylvania
We partner with Sesame Street in Communities (SSIC) to help kids and families grow smarter, stronger, and kinder.
SSTC and our community and regional partners are united to foster families’ and kids’ resilience, nurture their physical and mental health, and provide critical early learning opportunities. You’re an important part of the “circle of care” that surrounds the families and kids who need it most.
Sesame Workshop
Sesame Workshop is the global impact nonprofit behind Sesame Street and so much more. For over 50 years, it has worked at the intersection of education, media, and research, creating joyful experiences that enrich minds and expand hearts.
With a mission to help children everywhere grow smarter, stronger, and kinder, Sesame Workshop reaches families in more than 150 countries with playful early learning, to empower each generation to build a better world.
Beloved characters, iconic shows, and outreach in communities are rooted in deep expertise and designed to meet children’s most pressing needs. From building school readiness to encouraging playful problem-solving, from supporting emotional well-being to promoting positive self-identity, Sesame Workshop is there for children and families — as every caregiver’s valued partner and every child’s trusted friend.
