The Verner Central for Early Learning Policy Council plays a pivotal role in guiding the center’s mission to enhance the lives of young children and families.
Comprised of dedicated community leaders, parents, and early childhood professionals, the Policy Council provides valuable input on program development, strategic initiatives, and policy decisions. By ensuring that the voices of those most impacted are heard, we strive to create effective, equitable early learning solutions that support the growth and well-being of children from diverse backgrounds.
