position statements

As a community, our work is continually focused on equity and justice. With this in mind, we have developed a variety of resources and several position statements in response to institutional acts of violence continuing to affect the daily lives of families and children in the United States. We invite you to read the ECEA Position Statements and join us in making change in our classrooms, our communities, and our world.
