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. 

If you are in an area not already served by a Chapter of TXAEYC, apply now to form a new Chapter to meet the needs of our great state's early childhood community. TXAEYC is pleased to open its 2020-2021 Chapter Application process. Applications will be accepted from November 13, 2020 through January 13, 2021. 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 2021 Board meeting in February 2021. Approved Chapters will be granted charters effective on June 1, 2021.

Please direct questions to Rhonda Crabbs, Vice President of Chapter Relations, at 682-478-7417 or email [email protected]
