Nancy Langdon
AFLAC
Nancy Langdon has been a resident of El Paso for eight years. Before moving to El Paso, she lived in Lubbock, Texas for over 20 years. She was born and raised in Kansas. Her main career goal has always been helping people. She has a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education from Baker University in Baldwin, Kansas, and a Master’s Degree in Child Development from Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas.
Ms. Langdon worked as the Coordinator of the Child Development program at South Plains College for 13 years. During that time she also frequently taught courses at Texas Tech University. After leaving the college, she went to work for South Plains Community Action Association (SPCAA) as the Director of the Child Care Division. During her nine years with SPCAA, she worked with Child Care Services, the Child Care Food Program, Child Care Training, and wrote grants so that new programs could be developed. The overall goal during her work at South Plains College and South Plains Community Action was to increase quality for young children and their families. Ms. Langdon often provided training for early childhood educators as well as parenting education classes. She was very involved in the early childhood and child care community throughout the South Plains area.
Volunteer work has continually been an important part of her life, both personally and professionally. She was a leader in getting the South Plains Prevention of Child Abuse chapter started in Lubbock and served on that board for several years. She also played a major role in starting a Success By Six chapter in the South Plains area. After successfully writing a grant for an Early Head Start program for the South Plains area, Ms. Langdon became very involved with Child Protective Services and Early Childhood Intervention. The Early Head Start program worked in partnership with both of these programs. Ms. Langdon has been married to Clark Langdon for nearly 17 years. She has one daughter and Clark has two sons and a daughter. Together, they have eight grandchildren. A promotion for Clark is what led them to move to El Paso. She was drawn to the Child Crisis Center because of her many years of experience in working with children and the prevention of child abuse. She has served on the Child Crisis Center Board of Directors for seven years. During that time, she has held the offices of Secretary, Vice President, and President. She has chaired the Awards Dinner and Celebration Planning Committee for the past four years and currently serves as chair of the Personnel Committee. In their spare time, the Langdons enjoy traveling (often to see kids and grandkids!). This summer, they have been enjoying the inaugural season of the Chihuahuas AAA baseball team as season ticket holders.
