Strengthening and Supporting Families through Early Care and Education Programs (Workshop 6)
Early care and education staff reach a large proportion of families on a daily basis, and, consequently, can serve as a critical early warning system to head off trouble when parents are experiencing stress and as a vehicle for helping parents build good parenting skills at a time when they need such support most. This Roundtable reports on a national effort to identify how early care and education programs currently are at work to prevent child abuse and neglect across the country. Even more importantly, the Roundtable provides an opportunity to initiate a conversation about the ways partners like early care and education programs can be brought into the child abuse and neglect prevention process.
