Regional Councils help to set priorities and drive action in communities across Vermont. Each regional early childhood council, supported by one of BBF’s Regional Council Managers, brings together community members committed to young children and families. Councils are guided by a Regional Action Plan, and identify annual priority actions based on community needs and gaps. The Regional Councils also advise the BBF State Advisory Council on opportunities to strengthen both local and statewide systems of care, health, and education. Regional Council meetings are open to all interested individuals.
