The Family Advisory Board (FAB) is led by mothers, fathers, and grandparents who are the experts at raising children in Brownsville. FAB members represent the diversity of lived experiences in the neighborhood, including public housing and homeownership, entrepreneurs and homemakers, families small and large, and households involved in foster care, the shelter system, and special education. This depth of experience informs the FAB’s ideas for improving the early childhood system. The FAB meets monthly and shares decision-making power with the Provider Action Team.

In our commitment to diversity, UB is actively recruiting male members. If you you would like to join the FAB or know a good candidate, please reach out to us!
