ECEI's Educare Implementation Study team joined Tulsa Educare in welcoming more than 300 early childhood professionals, partners, and funders to Tulsa for Educare Network’s Catalyst 26 Summit this week. This was the perfect year to host this special event as Tulsa Educare is celebrating 20 years since opening their first Tulsa school and ECEI is also celebrating our 20th anniversary this year!

Highlights from the week included an immersive lab experience and tour at Educare Celia Clinton, the 4th Tulsa Educare school site which opened in 2020, and an evening reception and museum experience in Tulsa’s historic Greenwood District to honor the enduring legacy of Black Wall Street. The ECEI was proud to be a part of such a great event!
