Serving Since 1967

Educational Opportunities for Children & Families (EOCF) has been serving our community since 1967. During this time, EOCF was formed as a Community Action Agency to fight the War on Poverty.

From over 40 years of steady growth and expansion, EOCF now provides services to more than 2,000 low-income children and families in four SW Washington counties each year.

EOCF programs include:

Our Programs Make a Difference

Studies show that disadvantaged children who receive early learning services have a greater chance of reaching self-suffiency. In fact, children who receive EOCF services are less likely to repeat a grade, need special education, commit a crime, and more likely to graduate than those who don't.

EOCF is a non-profit corporation governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. Governance is also shared with a Policy Council comprised of parents served in our programs. EOCF employs more than 280 men and women and infuses our area with more than $10 million of state and federally funded services each year.
