Background and Discussion:
DEEO continues to host outreach events such as community-based meetings, outreach programs, conferences, and initiatives to reach the community and develop relationships for Early Childhood Initiatives (ECI) programs.

The items will be purchased utilizing flex funding from October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2025.

Expected Impact:
This approval will allow the opportunity for ECI to continue outreach events and expand opportunities to connect and engage with the community.

Alternative Options:
No alternative; failure to approve the financial authorization will impact the engagement opportunities for ECI.
