ECEAP Substitutes Classroom Support; Anacortes, Coupeville, Oak Harbor

ECEAP Substitute Classroom Support

ECEAP is a state-funded program that has been serving vulnerable children and families for more than a quarter of a century. We serve people experiencing homelessness, poverty, involvement in the foster system or child protective system, or any other family stressors that qualifying families may be experiencing. ECEAP classrooms do not expel or exclude children due to behavioral issues, disabilities, or special needs of any kind.

We recognize instead that individualizing for the specific needs of every child in a nurturing and supportive environment is how we best help all children reach kindergarten healthy and ready to learn. Site staff will have a responsibility to support the needs of all children in their classrooms.
