Call for Community of Practice Facilitator: Early Intervention Community of Practice
The DEC Early Intervention Community of Practice (EI CoP) is recruiting a new co-facilitator to assist existing facilitator, Lorelei Pisha, in her duties beginning in January 2025. This is an opportunity for existing DEC EI CoP members to level up their leadership and help ensure the sustainability of the CoP through future leadership transitions.
Members representative of the diversity of DEC membership are encouraged to apply, including race, ethnicity, culture, language, dialect, age, ability, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, religion/spirituality, and national origin. We seek representation of geography, organizations, agencies, universities, and experience. We seek members representing all member categories (practitioners, family members, higher education faculty, etc.). Applicants should be/become knowledgeable about the DEC Mission, Vision, Policies, and Racial Equity Point of View. Co-Facilitators will be required to be current DEC members or to join DEC if they have not already.
Please complete this form to indicate your interest in co-facilitating the EI CoP by Monday December 2 at, 5 PM Eastern Time. The selected co-facilitator will be contacted after the existing facilitators have an opportunity to review applications with the DEC CoP Development Committee and the Executive Office. The selected CoP co-facilitator can anticipate a start date in their new role in January 2025.

What is the Early Intervention Community of Practice (EI CoP)?
The EI CoP is a place where voices can be heard, and members can gain new insights about working with families of infants and toddlers (birth to age 3) with developmental delays or disabilities. This is the place to pose questions, share ideas, problem solve, and discuss any early intervention topics of interest to our members. Members can also find resources specific to their interests and find support to enhance the work they do in early intervention.
