​Join us on March 15 for ECFE Day at the Capitol

For almost 50 years, Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) has been an integral part of our state. Each year, Minnesota's Early Childhood Educators and ECFE families gather to make meaningful connections with legislators and emphasize the priority issues affecting families with young children in our state. ECFE day at the Capitol is MNAFEE's largest advocacy event of the year and serves as a great opportunity to get involved.

After several years of virtual events, MNAFEE is excited to return to an in-person event for the 2023 ECFE Day at the Capitol. Join us and invite your ECFE families to join us on Wednesday, March 15; from 10-11:30 a.m. for this year's event.
