We are excited to announce our newest board member, Katherine Williams! Katherine is the Cooperative Extension Director for Wake County, and she brings great experience to the WCSS Board of Directors.
"I am very honored to be serving on the Wake County Smart Start Board. As the Extension Director in Wake County, I am aware of the tremendous leadership that WCSS has provided in our community related to early childhood education. Their example has helped to ignite collective impact efforts across this community and their commitment to being a good partner has led to many effective collaborations, including Farm to Child Care and Building Community Resilience. I am proud that our local Smart Start lives into a vision to support families and to address the root causes or social determinants of health. The Board, the Executive Director, and the entire staff are unapologetically passionate about our littlest community members, and this enthusiasm is contagious."
