AFFILIATES

What is the ACCESS Affiliate Program? 

ACCESS supports and promotes early childhood preparation in associate degree programs and desires to connect faculty in those programs. Some states have a long tradition of faculty collaboration while others may see the value in such a network and desire a structure and facilitation for such a network. The ACCESS State Affiliate program is designed for those purposes. The purpose of the ACCESS state affiliate structure is to help build state networks of ACCESS members, promote the mission of ACCESS, build state and national leadership, and to connect state networks with national ACCESS. In order to apply for affiliate status, state networks must have at least 10 current members, elect state officers, and have a conduit for receiving funding and sponsor state activities. All state ACCESS affiliate officers must be current national ACCESS members.
