About
Restacking the Odds (RSTO) is a national initiative led by the Centre for Community Child Health at the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute, in collaboration with Social Ventures Australia and Bain & Company. Our mission is to ensure all children can access and participate in high-quality early childhood services.
When children access a combination of high-quality early childhood services, and extra supports as needed, the benefits add up. This is known as stacking and supports all children to get the best start in life.
We work with local early years partnerships to build a stronger stack of services and drive equitable outcomes using actionable data. We equip partners with tools and resources that help them measure progress, visualise data and make informed decisions to improve local systems and practice.
