Early Childhood Evaluation: Improving Policy, Systems, and Services

Using data can be a powerful tool for advancing early childhood practice in SOCs. This learning community session will focus on how to design an evaluation to improve early childhood SOCs, and how to translate evaluation findings to effectively describe positive impacts and return on investment to policy makers and other partners. In addition to a presentation, there will be a facilitated discussion on evaluating early childhood systems and services and using these findings to improve policy, systems, and services.
