More November election aftermath: King County’s “Best Starts for Kids,” funded by a levy that won 56 percent voter approval, now has an advisory board. And at least one West Seattleite is on the list: WestSide Baby executive director Nancy Woodland. The full list of appointees chosen by another West Seattleite, County Executive Dow Constantine, is in this news release, which also recaps what BS4K is all about:

Best Starts for Kids is the most comprehensive approach to childhood development in the nation, with a framework based on the latest neuroscience. It will focus investments on birth through age 5 when 92 percent of brain growth occurs. It will sustain the gain by providing intervention services as problems such as serious depression and addiction emerge during teenage years. It will also invest in healthier, safer communities that reinforce progress.
