Last year, NAEYC reached out to the field for feedback to begin the revision process of two foundational position statements, the Code of Ethical Conduct and the Early Childhood Program Standards. With feedback from thousands of educators, and the guidance of workgroups made up of Governing Board members, educators, faculty, researchers, partners, and advisors, we are honored to launch a public comment period with draft versions of these two revised position statements for your review through November 15, 2024. We invite you to join the revision process by looking through the drafts and taking time to share your thoughts and perspectives.
