This year’s Annual Institute will be organized by the Governor’s Office of Early Childhood and will focus on the important role the Councils will play to help ensure that all Kentucky children are ready to succeed in Kindergarten and beyond. The Institute will focus on providing training and technical assistance and informational sessions designed to highlight potential activities for councils for the coming year and beyond. Registration to the Institute is free and attendees need only pay for lodging and meals.
