ELV uses the state subsidy as the base layer, and the EHS is second layer which on average is $700/per EHS child per month.

The second most popular incentive for providers to partner with EHS-CCP was being recognized as a higher quality program.

Find more info on the program models featured today on the Home Grown EHS application webpage in the Program Models Resources section at https://homegrownchildcare.org/early-head-start-application-resources-for-home-based-child-care/

Quick reminder: this session is 90 minutes long and ends at 3:30pm EST. The webinar will be recorded and posted on our website.

Some examples of curriculum used byfamily child care providers include Redleaf Press, Creative Curriculum, and HighScope

We use Creative Curriculum and our providers use TS Gold online for entering observations and assessing children’s development. This system also produces outcome statistics of those assessments and providers create individual child action plans based on those outcomes.

Yes! Engage your state agency partners, esp. your state child care administrator, as you develop your application and ask them for a letter of support. And, as you implement the grant if its funded, meet frequently with your state systems leaders and other EHS-CCP grantees in your state to work on policy alignment and overcoming challenges

TS Gold is Teaching Strategies Gold a Creative Curriculum extension.

Your State Head Start Association is also a great resource if you choose to write a grant.

Yes! We all need to take time to celebrate our wins more often. :)

Yes, recruiting and an orientation before contracting.

There are many good examples of the spillover effects of EHS-CCP in the Reports section on the website. Also See this report by Child Trends on this topic at https://www.childtrends.org/publications/extending-the-benefits-of-early-head-start-child-care-partnerships-for-children-and-families

I also know of EHS-CCP grantees who do private fundraising to pay for things like diapers and formula for non-eligible children served in EHS-CCP settings

Tell us what other TA and resources you need. Please share here any feedback and additional needs.
