Awards & Recognition
Our Coalition understands that being an early educator is not an easy job, but it is certainly one of the most important.  When you think of the amount of training, skills and responsibilities good child care providers have, it is important to acknowledge their roles and support their achievements.

Provider Advisory Councils
The Provider Advisory Councils were established to provide an open forum where providers can share their ideas, concerns, requests and opinions and to provide an avenue for the Coalition to gain critical feedback in the development and implementation of quality initiatives and program enhancement services.  All providers are encouraged to actively participate and to make an impact in the early care and education industry.  

Professional Development
Well trained and educated teachers prepare children for success in kindergarten and beyond. That is why our Coalition provides access to high quality training opportunities offered by qualified trainers on a variety of topics throughout the year to meet the needs of Osceola County's early educators.

Grants and Scholarships
Our Coalition receives grant funds to be allocated to Quality Initiatives that may be used to promote and enhance the early care and education environment. Participation in the Coalition’s Quality Initiatives is contingent upon the participating early learning provider’s compliance with the School Readiness Provider Agreement and/or the Statewide VPK Provider Agreement.
