As a membership organization, we value all of our members and have a network of chapters to provide various benefits at the local level. Please visit your chapter's page to learn more about their networking activities, professional development opportunities, leadership teams, and how you can get involved. 

TXAEYC is also looking to expand our Chapter network to areas not already served in order to meet the needs of our great state's early childhood community. In order to achieve this goal, TXAEYC is pleased to open its 2020 Chapter Application process. Applications will be accepted from November 11, 2019 through January 13, 2020. All applications must be submitted through mail or email.  

Completed applications will be reviewed by TXAEYC Staff, Vice President of Chapter Relations, and Chapter Committee members to determine whether the Principles of Affiliation and the Capacity Thresholds have been met and to verify the required documentation. 

Upon review of applications, TXAEYC staff or board member(s) may seek additional clarification and information, including technical assistance plans to help reach capacity thresholds that are not already achieved. At their discretion, the Chapter Committee and VP of Chapter Relations may submit recommendations for affiliation to the TXAEYC Governing Board for consideration and approval at the Winter 2020 Board meeting in February 2020. Approved Chapters will be granted charters effective on June 1, 2020.

Please direct questions to Michael Gonzalez, Vice President of Chapter Relations, at mgonzalez491@gmail.com or 832-798-5184.
