DCDEE is joining our Department of Health and Human Services colleagues in the new DHHS headquarters just across the street from the NC Museum of Art.
Our mailing address is unchanged: 2201 Mail Service Center | Raleigh, NC 27699-2200.
Our new physical address is 1915 Health Services Way, Raleigh, NC 27607.
Our last day in the Six Forks office will be September 26.
We’ll be in the new building beginning October 1 and the November 3rd Child Care Commission meeting will be held there.
Birth-Kindergarten programs are designed to prepare educators to work with children, birth through age five, with and without disabilities. Each institution of higher education (4-year colleges/ universities) offers an inclusive, interdisciplinary course of study leading to the North Carolina BK teacher license. Individuals completing the requirements for this license will be prepared to enter the profession of teaching infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergartners in public schools, child care programs, and developmental day centers. Teachers will also acquire skills to assist the families of young children. The interdisciplinary approach includes early childhood education, special education, child and family studies, and elementary education.
