Wings' Parent Organization
Prior to March 2026, Wings Early Childhood Center was officially "The Archuleta County Education Center (dba Wings Early Childhood Center)." In order to simplify communication, and because 100% of Archuleta County Education Center funds and activities were support of Wings Early Childhood Center, our name is now simply "Wings Early Childhood Center."
As a 501c3 corporation, Wings is funded through the generous gifts, donations, and contracts by community members, organizations, and agencies; foundation grants; state and federal program/project grants; and strategic private sector collaborations.
