The New River Valley Chapter of Virginia Association for the Education of Young Children (VAAEYC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the needs and championing the rights of young children.

The New River Valley Chapter recognizes the importance of fostering language development, inspiring exploration of new concepts, and facilitating the growth of social skills in our young people. Thus, we strive as a group to promote and support our early childhood education professionals in their own professional development and growth.

The New River Valley Chapter of VAAEYC also strives to advocate, through community awareness events, the importance of quality early childhood experiences and the need for living wages for our early childhood educators. The early childhood educators provide the first step in a child becoming a healthy functioning adult who positively impacts our society. Our group believes the efforts we make locally to support both the professionals in the early childhood field and parents allows children to be prepared with the skills they need for the next developmental stage and life.
