Trainings: Getting Training in Your Community

The newly created CCW/AFTEF will not offer these trainings. However, before merging with the AFTEF, CCW identified 2 organizations that are were well-equipped to continue the trainings that have come to be so highly valued in the early care and education field. Fortunately, Community Allies and the MassLEAP Partner Collaboration have agreed to lead these important training programs and CCW/AFTEF is happy to continue connecting center-based teachers, family child care providers, directors, and administrators with these leadership and community organizing trainings. You can access these trainings in two ways:

Contact Community Allies or CCRC to coordinate one of these trainings:
Community Allies is based in Durham, NC and provides training and consultation to promote research-based information to teachers, administrators, parents and policy makers.
