FEATURED SPEAKER – Dr. Patrick Cooper
Dr. Pat Cooper currently serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the Early Childhood & Family Learning
Foundation in New Orleans, LA. The goals of the Foundation include establishing community centers in the
most economically depressed & crime-ridden neighborhoods of New Orleans. These centers will establish
universal, quality early child care programs in the neighborhoods & universal, quality coordinated school
health programs in the schools of that neighborhood while providing a one-stop health, social service, &
