Who Are We?

The Early Learning Hub of Central Oregon is a regional cross-sector partnership working collectively to support parents and to establish a solid foundation for children’s long-term success. The Hub serves Crook, Deschutes, and Jefferson Counties and for mutually agreed upon strategies, The Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs (Tribes).

Our Mission is to create an efficient and effective early learning system to ensure all children in Central Oregon, prenatal through eight, receive the opportunities and supports they need to enter school healthy, prepared and ready for success.

Early Care and Education 

The Early Learning Hub of Central Oregon, with Early Care and Education partners, are in the process of gathering information to support an updated Early Care and Education (ECE) Strategic Plan.  This ECE plan will help inform strategies aligned with Raise Up Oregon:  Early Learning System Plan and investments from the Student Success Act.  Early Care and Education and K-12 partners are invited to participate in local focus groups across the Region to share their perspective on strategies to support Kindergarten Readiness, and opportunities to support PreK to School alignment.  We will also be gathering interest in opportunities to expand quality Preschool and Early Head Start programming.
