Early Steps is
a community-based program. It depends on input from
parents and community members. Early Steps works with IYC
Provider Network and the Early Childhood Council.
The
Mission Statement of the Early Childhood Council of Hillsborough
County, Inc.
The Early
Childhood Council of Hillsborough County (ECC), Inc. seeks to assure a
comprehensive continuum of services to all children under 8 and
their families in Hillsborough County, specifically those
children who need specialized educational, medical, or social services.
The Council promotes effective utilization of personnel and
resources so that each child and family is identified and
receives services in a timely fashion.
The Early Childhood Council of Hillsborough County meets the second
Thursday of each month. ECC has more than 41 agency members and
is very active in education and advocacy efforts. The Council
is the lead partner in planning and implementing an annual statewide
