Inspire Breakfast 

The 2025 Inspire Breakfast was a wonderful opportunity for the Encompass community to celebrate our purpose: to improve the well-being of children by partnering with families and the community.

Highlights of the morning:

· Honorary Chair, Nancy Whitaker, shared her motivation for being a longstanding advocate of Encompass.

· Superintendent Dan Schlotfeldt, our Keynote Speaker, taught us about the importance of readiness and how repeated support, guidance, and trust are key factors in making our children confident and capable in handling what is in front of them.

· Hannah and Todd Erskine, Encompass parents, passionately shared their family’s journey and experience with Encompass through Early Support for Infants and Toddlers (ESIT), Early Learning Programs, and Community-Based Services.

· Honoring the 2025 Encompass Inspire Award winners:

• Symetra, The John Castle Corporate Partner of the Year

• Snoqualmie Valley Alliance Church, Community Partner of the Year

Thank you to our attendees and supporters for helping Encompass ensure that we can create a community where ALL children thrive!
