Governance and Staff
Clackamas County Early Learning Hub Governance Council
The Clackamas County Early Learning Hub Governance Council's purpose is to convene partners and engage families in early childhood care and education to create a more coordinated system of services that will improve outcomes for Clackamas County’s most at-risk families. The overarching goals are to ensure kindergarten readiness, stable and attached families, and early learning system coordination in Clackamas County.
Clackamas County Early Learning Hub Governance Council members acknowledge and strongly support family engagement and equity as key values underpinning its early learning work.
Mission: To create a high-quality early learning system that integrates and coordinates efforts to ensure all children are ready for Kindergarten, and reading at grade level by the end of the 3rd grade.
