Vision
We believe that the future of early childhood education remains in the hands of strong professionals who are able to advocate and collaborate for the best interests of children and families.

Through sustained opportunities to develop new leadership skills within a nurturing environment, we will develop leaders

• Who have mastered the skills of organizational management and team building
  
• Who are powerful and articulate voices for children and high quality early care and education at the regional, county and local level.
  
• Who confront the deep-seated prejudices that pervade our society and our field and have the courage to take action
  

SCAEYC leaders now and in the future will play a significant role in shaping excellent early care and education systems in the region.
