DEC Announces New Executive Director - Peggy Kemp, PhD

It is an incredibly exciting and prosperous time for DEC right now. We have a new website and a new logo and we hope you have checked it out! We also are in the midst of planning an engaging and energizing conference. Perhaps most importantly, we just wrapped up our search for an Executive Director and are thrilled to announce that Peggy Kemp will be our new ED starting July 1, 2016! We had several excellent final candidates and want to extend our sincerest appreciation to the search committee for their hard work during this process. Peggy Kemp brings extensive experience in early childhood and has been an active DEC member for many years. Her unique and highly qualified set of knowledge and skills positions DEC particularly well for a thriving future. She has already started working closely with Ben and the rest of the EO and the EB to ensure the transition is smooth and supportive.
