Early Learning Advisory Council (ELAC)

The Early Learning Council (ELAC) was established by Florida Statute, s. 1002.77.  The purpose of the advisory council is to submit recommendations on the early learning policy of the state to the Governor's office through the Agency for Workforce Innovation, including the administration of the Voluntary Prekindergarten, School Readiness, and Child Care Resource and Referral programs. The agenda of the council is to run the coalitions like a business, to maximize the money from the state, and to ensure that our youngest children are prepared to enter school. The advisory council meets quarterly at different locations across the state.  For more meeting information including agendas and meeting minutes, please see the links below.
