Illinois Head Start Association - Event Information

Join a peer-led learning group for professionals who oversee health services, safety protocols, and child nutrition in Head Start and Early Head Start. This Quality Enrichment Circle (QEC) is a virtual space for real talk, skill-building, and practical problem-solving with others who manage the systems that keep kids safe and healthy.

You’ll connect with peers balancing compliance, documentation, family communication, and hands-on logistics. From meal planning to health tracking to safety drills—this space is for those making it all run smoothly.

Sessions are led by experienced practitioners and include guest speakers, breakout discussions by region, and plenty of time to learn from each other. You’ll walk away with new tools, fresh insights, and a stronger network of colleagues.

All QECs are fully virtual, with flexible attendance. No travel. No fluff. Just useful time spent with people who get it.
