Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community

The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) has been dedicated, for many years, to ensuring the youngest members of our society or given what they need to be successful.  NAEYC was chosen as one of my national organizations because of its dedication not only to children, but also to the professionals in the field.  Another national organization I’m interested in because of its focus on the professional development of early childhood educators is the CDA council.  The third organization I’m interested in is the National Head Start Association because of its focus on working with children and their families living in poverty.
