What is a board member?

OCAEYC is a non-profit organization that supports professionals in their work with children.  Board members come from all aspects of our fields and participate in achieving the mission of the organization.  Our current board consists of teachers, directors, aides, professors, owners, advocates, students, parents, and other agency liaisons with whom we collaborate.  Everyone comes together, volunteering their time, to support the early childhood field! Join us! Be part of our team!

What does the board do?

The board comes together four times a year, typically on a Saturday afternoon.  We meet at this time because the weekday evenings are difficult for students and faculty and those of us who work a long day and want to be home with our families in the evening.  Additionally, we have board members that celebrate Sabbath on Saturday mornings and want to support their families as well.   When we do come together, we discuss current ECE issues, gather participation for our upcoming events, and plan and coordinate those events.  We also discuss policies that are currently being promoted by legislation and that could affect families and children.  Go to "about us" to see what are current mission is as an organization! We often set committees that focus on a particular goal.  We have several committees.  Click here to learn more about them!

How can I be a part of this board?

Fabulous! We would love for you to be part of our organization.  If you are already an OCAEYC general member, then the next step to becoming more involved is to contact one of our board members.  If you look to the right of this screen, you can see Susie's contact information.  Call her! She will take you to lunch and you can learn more about ways to get involved.  Before you call, go to the committee page and view some of the different opportunities in which you can be more involved.  BUT, don't let that stop you from discussing your own ideas! We would love to hear some of your ideas too!
