Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community: National/Federal Level

There are many organizations I would be honored to be a part of.  Each organization focuses on the importance of early childhood and advocating for this field.  These organizations provide an current information as well as ways to get involved. 

The National Coalition for Parent Involvement in Education advocates for the involvement for parents and families in their child's education.  This organization recognizes the importance of involvement at home as well as school.  There is at one parent corner in each state.  In Michigan it is called the Michigan Alliance for Families located in Detroit.  There were no job opportunities listed at this time, however there were many opportunities to be involved in this organization. 

The National Center for Children in Poverty promotes the economic security, health and well-being of low incomes families and children.  They all promote family oriented solutions at the state and national levels. There are no job opportunities at this time. 

WINGS is an education program that teaches kids how to make good decisions and build healthy relationships.  They use a comprehensive social and emotional curriculum into an after school program.  There are no job opportunities at this time, however there are volunteer opportunities available.
