ChACEE’s Statement on Anti-Racism, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
As a welcoming and caring organization that respects diversity, equity, and inclusion, ChACEE has a duty and responsibility to work for a better, fairer and more just world for Tennessee’s children, their families, and the professionals who care for them. We will continue to take individual and collective assertive action to identify, acknowledge, and break down oppressive racist systems that harm our members and the children and families in our care, and corrode our communities.
Therefore, we are resolved to explicitly and publicly affirm our identity as an anti-racist organization.
We are resolved that our anti-racism commitment be reflected through our policies, programs, and practices as we continue to learn about racism.
We resolve to recommit ourselves to develop and work to implement strategies that dismantle racism within all aspects of the early childhood education community.

ChACEE Partners
The Partners meet quarterly to share what is happening in their programs. They discuss changes and updates, collaborate, communicate and work together. One of the most important thing to the partners is the relationship that has been created between the different departments. But, the MOST important thing to all of the partners is what is BEST for the children. They all have the same goal in mind and that is high quality child care. Each group reaches out to the community in a different way, but in the end the children are the priority.
