The Early Childhood Iowa State Board provides oversight of the ECI Area Boards to provide governance for planning and collaboration of services to support young children and their families. There are currently 38 area boards that cover all of Iowa’s 99 counties. The ECI State Board includes citizen members appointed by the Governor, the agency directors (or designees) of the Departments of Education, Economic Development Authority, Human Rights, Health and Human Services, and Workforce Development, and ex-officio legislators.
