Governance Consortium

The Governance Consortium serves as the governing body of the Early Childhood Hub of Lane County. Membership includes representatives from six key “sectors”, or areas of the community: early care & education, K-12 education, health & human services, housing, business & community leaders, and parents & caregivers.
