This toolkit helps early childhood leaders to assess the quality of their family and community engagement in seven areas using a team approach and then identify steps for improvement. “Signs of Success” (or indicators) are included for each standard.
The Toolkit was developed in partnership with the Illinois Governor’s Office of Early Childhood Development as part of the Federally-Funded Race to the Top-Early Learning Challenge Grant. The toolkit was part of the ExceleRate Illinois’ Awards for Excellence for Family and Community Engagement and developed in April 2017.
