Comprehensive Planning Technical Assistance Trainings
The primary audience for these trainings are the First Steps Local Partnerships for their FY21-FY23 Comprehensive Plans. However, we encourage First Steps State Office Staff and Board Members, as well as First Steps 4K providers to attend, as they may find these beneficial, too. Up to 20 hours total of technical assistance from each consultant are available to Local Partnerships only.
