SF SEED Application Due Soon

THE SF SEED APPLICATION DEADLINE IS QUICKLY APPROACHING!

As you may know, SF SEED (San Francisco Supporting Early Educator Degrees) is a fiscal incentive program for early educators who are working toward an associate's or bachelor's degree in early childhood education. I've attached a flyer with more information about eligibility and application deadlines. The SF SEED application deadline for fall 2017 is November 21st. Please read the attached flyer and visit our website for more information about eligibility, stipend levels, and step by step directions on how to apply to SF SEED.

There are changes to this year's stipend, here are the highlights:

New Eligibility Criteria
  • Non-Ratio Staff: Staff employed by licensed SF childcare centers who are not in direct ratio are now eligible to apply for stipends.
  • Education Plans: In an effort to meet BA mandates for the field, stipends are available for individuals working toward degree attainment, applicants can only receive a stipend for courses that follow approved Educational Plans that are designed for degree attainment in Child and Adolescent Development or a related major. If you need support in obtaining an Educational Plan, please visit our website for more information.
