Durham PreK (DPK) is a universal public preschool program for Durham’s 4-year-olds funded by Durham County and administered by Early Years.
Early Years, as the management agency hired by Durham County Government to coordinate and lead the local universal preschool initiative, posts this request for proposals to facilitate meetings to support the Durham Preschool Collaborative, established at the founding of DPK. This group, comprised of leaders from Early Years, Durham Public Schools, Families and Communities Rising (as administrator of Durham Head Start), and Durham’s Partnership for Children (as administrator of NC Pre-K), works together to deliver services in public and private licensed sites across all public preschool funding streams.
To enrich and maintain this collaborative partnership model, Early Years seeks an independent contractor or group to facilitate vision and planning meetings.
DEADLINE for proposals: 5 p.m., January 5, 2026
NOTIFICATION of selection by January 30, 2026
CONTRACT PERIOD is from March 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027
