AGENCY:
Request for public comment.
SUMMARY: This information request is
part of the project, Assessing the
Implementation and Cost of High
Quality Early Care and Education (ECE–
ICHQ). The project’s goal is to create a
technically sound and feasible
instrument that will provide consistent,
systematic measures of the
implementation and costs of education
and care in center-based settings that
serve children from birth to age 5. The
resulting measures will inform research,
policy, and practice by improving
understanding of variations in what
centers do to support quality, their
associated costs, and how resources for
ECE may be better aligned with
expectations for quality.
