Changing Early Childhood Education Environments with Partnership, Quality Improvement, and Intensive Consultation: A Look at One Case

Abstract

To ensure that families get the childcare services they need, Sacramento County created the Quality Child Care Collaborative (QCCC). The QCCC is a partnership of several agencies focused on improving the quality of child care provided to children and their families. The QCCC practices can be worked into other childcare programs; other counties and states can benefit from emulating the QCCC’s actions, collabora-tion, and aims.
