MNAFEE 2022 Fall Workshop Materials

Picture
​​A New Era for ECFE 
November 4 - Noon to 4 p.m.

​​A dynamic professional development experience where you choose your own adventure through individualized learning in collaboration with your team. 

The breakout sessions serve as a pathway for you to explore: 
  -  Reaching Back: Implementing the foundational pieces of
      ECFE in new ways. 
  -  Reaching Forward: Meaningful data to guide your
      step into the future. If we know where we’ve been, we can
      see where we are going.
  -  Reaching Out: Stretching across the groups we serve to
      include all communities and propel us to new ways of
      strengthening families.
