The Supervisors Network Meeting gathers on the third Wednesday of each month from 9:30am - 12:00pm.
To begin the meeting we will have a presentation from Tracy Chiasson-Lawlor with the Department of Family and Human Services to provide information about the recent changes to the Child Care Subsidy program. The Department of Family & Human Services has redesigned the subsidy component of the program to enhance affordability to island families, and they want everyone who is presently involved with the subsidy program to be aware of the changes and how the subsidy calculation works.
Later in the meeting, the project manager of Bilateral Agreement on Early Learning and Child Care, Garth Waite, will be providing an update and answering your questions on the process (including EYC applications, training grants, and other initiatives).
This network is open to all supervisors, directors, and administrators of licensed early learning and child care programs. Please note that registration is now necessary for all network meetings!
The ECDA has been supporting Directors and Supervisors for nearly ten years through the Supervisors Network. The intention of the group is to encourage open dialogue and knowledge exchange to enhance quality practices, such as human resource practices and policies, pedogogy and leadership.
