Welcome to the Southwest Ohio Association for the Education of Young Children
Serving Cincinnati, Columbus and Dayton
We are so glad you are here!
Southwest Ohio AEYC is proud to be an affiliate of NAEYC.
Click below to read this important message from Ann McClain Terrell, Incoming President of NAEYC, and Rhian Evans Allvin, Chief Executive Officer of NAEYC.
During the past three years NAEYC affiliates from across the country participated in a national dialogue focused on reorganizing to better serve members wherever they live and work. The AEYC Board members of Cincinnati, Columbus and Dayton welcomed this conversation. We shared our vision and mission and considered how to improve our service to you, our valued members.
On September 1, 2017, our three local affiliates merged to form the Southwest Ohio Association for the Education of Young Children (SWOAEYC) as a state level organization. We are committed to serving you across our 16 county geographic region. With NAEYC, we are hard at work to extend your member benefits and provide more opportunities for member growth and engagement.
We are committed to strengthening our Board as a high performing inclusive organization. We will work closely with our chapters in Columbus and Dayton to listen well and give you greater value and more benefits.
