The 4C for Children Leadership and Early Childhood Conference is comprehensive and relevant to all who touch early care and education—including teachers, center-based child care providers, family child care providers, home visitors, directors, community partners, librarians and schools.
The theme for this year’s innovative conference on Oct. 23-24 is “Grow the Good: Creating Habits for Well-Being.” The two-day event will provide current, research-based strategies and pertinent information so that all will leave feeling empowered and fueled with knowledge, passion and inspiration to lead.
We need your expertise! Consider submitting a proposal for a conference workshop session.
Please note: Due to the uncertainty surrounding the current COVID-19 health crisis, we are developing an alternate plan to deliver the conference virtually if needed. Please keep this in mind when writing your proposal.
Why Present at the Conference?
The Conference draws 700 participants over two days from Ohio, Kentucky and other surrounding states. By sharing your expertise you can help early childhood professionals grow personally and professionally. As with other professional conferences, this will be in-kind. 4C for Children will provide FREE registration to attend the Conference on the day you present (excluding travel and lodging).
Your workshop session will provide high-quality professional development that paves the way for high-quality early care and education so that we can build our future, together.
