  • Fully aligned with NAEYC guidelines, including accreditation criteria and early learning standards.
  • Weekly parenting tips for supporting and extending children’s learning in families.

Parent Advisory Board

To support the continued well-being of all children/youth in the programs and become more formally involved in the CYP, you are encouraged to participate in the Parent Advisory Board (PAB). Members of the PAB provide recommendations for improving services, help plan unique events, and discuss other opportunities for parent participation. The PAB is composed of parents of children and youth enrolled in each type of CYP, base personnel, and CYP professionals. We value your ideas and view the PAB as an opportunity to continue to improve the programs and services provided.
