The DEC Executive Board Elections

It's time to elect new members to the DEC Board!

 

As DEC members, voting is your right and responsibility. Now, more than ever, we need strong leadership at DEC.  We need leaders ready to support the DEC Priority Issues Agenda and the DEC Racial Equity Point of View.  We need leaders ready to keep DEC moving ever forward towards being an anti-racist professional organization.  We need leaders ready to work to support members, subdivisions, and partners seeking solutions to the very real challenges facing our field.  We need leaders that support advocacy efforts focused on the needs of young children with disabilities and other special needs, their families, and the professionals who serve them. (That's you!)
 

We count on you to elect new members to the Board who not only represent various constituents within DEC and our field as a whole, but also bring a high level of energy and commitment to serving the organization.

 

Before you vote, please take a few moments to review the candidate profiles below.

Voting will close on Monday, May 20th, 2024, 11:59 PM Eastern Time.

 

Thank you for your continued commitment to young children with disabilities and their families!
