The Early Childhood Subcommittee (ECS) is a sub-committee of the Family First Council, which helps oversee Help Me Grow in Geauga County. The purpose of the ECS is to pull together parents and service providers with an interest in young children to see how things are going in Geauga regarding services for kids 0-3 and to identify any gaps in services. Are there things we can do better, things we can learn from each other, etc.? The ECS provides community members with a venue to discuss successes as well as gaps in services which impact your young children.
During the informal meeting we can provide you with childcare. Your children will be watched by HMG staff on-site, in a child friendly room. In addition, your time is valuable to us, we will give you a $25.00 gift card as a thank you for taking the time to attend our meeting.
