Windsor Early Childhood Council (ECC) Open House

The Windsor Early Childhood Council (ECC) would like to take this opportunity to invite you to our Open House on Wednesday, October 24, 2012 from 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm.  This will be a great opportunity for us to tell you about the Windsor Early Childhood Council and to solicit your input on how together we can continue to help make a positive difference in Windsor’s children.


The ECC is a dedicated group of volunteers comprised of Windsor residents, parents, Town and School leaders who have come together to make a difference in Windsor’s Children – focused on children birth to eight. The ECC participates with the Neighborhood enrichment programs, were a founding partner in the Childhood Conversations, and continue to support the program annually.


One of our most recent accomplishments was a partnership with the library to increase literacy through ‘Literacy to Go’ pack and grandparent packs now available at both the main and Wilson branches.  Additionally we coordinate a very successful Resource EXPO bringing together many of the various health, childcare and activity groups available to Windsor residents on the town green to share their programs (many low-cost or free).   We have partnered with the CT Trust Fund to bring ‘Help Me Grow’ programs to Windsor, which give parents, guardians and childcare providers access to a network of resources for children’s growth.  Each quarter this program has an evening dedicated to a topic related to raising children in today’s environment with a guest speaker.
