Re: February 24, 2003 ??“ Policy Summit

On behalf of the Association, I am please to invite you to CHSA??™s
Policy Summit on February 24, 2003 in Oakland. I realize this meeting is
with little notice but the Association leadership believes that it is
extremely important for leaders to come together immediately from across
the state to learn, listen and strategize as we face a very challenging
time.

It is of great importance that programs send to this meeting, members
of their boards, policy councils and community partners who are free to
speak on behalf of Head Start. We will provide tools to educate
communities, elected officials and most importantly our families.

Please complete the attached registration form and send it back to CHSA
at your earliest opportunity. We look forward to seeing you in
Oakland.


The California Head Start Association??™s leadership is asking all Head
Start, Early Head Start, Migrant and Tribal programs to send agency
leadership for a one-day meeting to learn more about Head Start
Reauthorization proposals. Resources will be provided on major proposals,
strategies to inform and educate staff, boards and community partners.
