We are especially looking for members with previous board experience who are in the medical field, legal field, sales or marketing field, or have good connections in town.

The Community Table is required to meet 6 times a year. The timing varies, and we are meeting at the ECCS office downtown. In spring of 2026 we will be doing a local needs assessment.

Plainville Early Learning Center, Inc. is a nonprofit, state-funded early childhood program committed to providing affordable, high-quality, year-round care and education for children and families, primarily those with low to moderate incomes. We serve children ages twelve months through twelve years in a safe, nurturing environment where dedicated educators support each child’s social-emotional, physical, cognitive, and language development. Our center believes children learn best through diverse cultural, social, and educational experiences, along with active play that supports growth in all areas of development. We strive to create a welcoming atmosphere where every child feels secure, valued, and confident.

The Pathways/Senderos Center was established in January 1993. The community-based after-school program targets youth experiencing poverty and their families in New Britain for comprehensive, holistic services designed ultimately to prevent teen pregnancy. We use a case management approach to provide long-term, intensive services for youth and their families. Our program model includes seven integrated components: academic support; career preparation; family life and sex education; violence prevention; recreation/lifetime sports; health care referrals; and self-esteem enhancement.
