Chris and Rebecca, two of our early learning parent policy representatives, shared their stories and highlighted challenges with proposed Head Start rulemaking. Potential changes to Head Start, E-Rate, and Title funding are statewide concerns — Jessica from the Association of Educational Service Districts (AESD), Erin from ESD 113, and Trisha from North Central Educational Service District (NCESD) joined us for the legislator visits.
Thanks to the Association of Educational Service Agencies (AESA) for hosting the Advocacy Conference that brought us together for this work, and to our legislators and their staffers for meeting with us: Senators Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell and representatives Pramila Jayapal, Suzan DelBene, Adam Smith, Marilyn Strickland, and Kim Schrier!
