Supporting an Early Learning Framework

The Child Care Bureau announces the release of a technical assistance CD-ROM titled “Supporting an Early Learning Framework” which includes research, practice, and resources focused on the President’s Good Start, Grow Smart early literacy initiative.

The CD-ROM is organized by the themes of the 12th annual National State Child Care Administrators’ conference – “National Perspective,” “Literacy and Learning,” “Professional Development,” and “Program Coordination and Financing” – and includes video clips of plenary sessions and selected workshops, PowerPoint presentations, handouts, electronic links and additional resources available for download. The CD-ROM is suitable for use by state child care administrators, Head Start directors, pre-school and early care and education providers, technical assistance trainers, and others to train staff, learn what states are doing to support early learning, engage new partners, find print and on-line resources and reports in specific topic areas, and reach new constituencies.
