Join the Oklahoma Partnership for School Readiness (OPSR) at a stakeholder* meeting in preparation for Oklahoma’s application for the Preschool Developmetn Grant. This grant is an opportunity for Oklahoma to receive significant funding to improve the coordination and quality of a mixed delivery system of early childhood programs. During the meeting, OPSR will provide an overview of grant goals and purpose and gather your input.
We encourage attendance from representatives of preschool and K-12 school districts, Medicaid/CHIP, Head Start, Educare, child care, special education and early intervention, health, mental health and child welfare; as well as representatives of Indian tribes, tribal organizations and urban Indian organizations within the state.
*You are a stakeholder if you are a parent, community leader or service provider, a private philanthropic funder, business or public/private leader, a member of the state or a local early learning or coordinating council focused on young children, and if you are an administrator, program director or staff across all child-serving agencies and programs.
