Abstract:
The Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE) within the Administration for Child and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services seeks approval to collect descriptive information for the new Early Head Start–child care partnership competitive grant opportunity. This information collection is being carried out as part of the Study of Early Head Start–Child Care Partnerships. The purpose of the study is to learn how the partnerships are formed and operated, including the models of partnerships used to deliver high-quality and comprehensive services to infants, toddlers, and their families. In particular, this descriptive study will document the characteristics and features of partnerships and activities that aim to improve professional development and the quality of services and better meet families' needs. The study will fill a knowledge gap about partnership models implemented in the field, lay the groundwork for future research, and provide information to inform technical assistance and actions aimed at improving the Early Head Start–child care partnerships grant initiative.
