We’re starting a monthly Peer-to-Peer Network Zoom meeting and this will be our first meeting. The meeting is not topic-based - we want to hear from you and find out what you need to get your work done.
It’s important to get together now because:
Three states now have licensing standards for outdoor, nature-based (ONB) preschool programs and the national movement is only picking up steam. We want to convene a peer-to-peer network to talk about our community's needs in order to create an advisory council of experts to teach our state about ONB best practices.
Governor Pritzker has initiated a new agency to oversee everything related to Early Childhood Education, projected to open in 2027. The development of the new agency is a public process. Nature-based educators should be part of the conversation about what early childhood education looks like in our state.
