Hello, my name is Arlene Wetmore, and I am proud to say that I am a BLI graduate from the class of 2020 in Jacksonville, Florida.

At the start of my career, I worked as a toddler teacher assistant in a large facility.  I grew in my field over the past thirty years and was promoted to various administrative positions including center director.  I am currently serving early childhood families as a home visitor with Episcopal Children Services and Early Head Start.

I continue to serve my state’s early childhood community as the chair of the nominating committee for FLAEYC, leader elect for the North Florida Chapter of FLAEYC, and a 2020 advocacy team member.
