A child’s early learning experiences help shape the way they grow and thrive as they move through early childhood, elementary school, and into their adolescent and adult years. The Douglas County Early Childhood Council (DCECC) is dedicated to working with local agencies, businesses and individuals to help make Douglas County the best county to raise young children.
