About me:
OUR MISSION: To create a quality improvement system in which all early learning programs and practitioners are encouraged and supported to improve child outcomes. Improvements in programming are designed to increase the capacity to support children's learning and development; increase educational attainment among practitioners; enhance professional skills and competencies in support of children's learning and development.
OUR VISION: All Pennsylvania families will have access to high-quality early care and education and school age child care opportunities for their children that fosters success in school and in life.
OUR HISTORY: The Department of Public Welfare (DPW) established the Office of Child Development (OCD) September 2004. The creation of a new office focused on early care and education demonstrates DPW’s commitment to creating a seamless system to serve young children and their families. OCD quickly began to address the issue of streamlining the patchwork of loosely related programs currently used to develop high quality child care services and a well-trained set of early care and education professionals. The Pennsylvania Early Learning Keys to Quality (PA Keys to Quality) is a quality improvement system in which all early learning programs and practitioners are encouraged and supported to improve child outcomes.
Themes for 2007-2008:
* LEADERSHIP AT ALL LEVELS
* SUPPORTING QUALITY IN EARLY LEARNING SETTINGS SERVING
DIVERSE POPULATIONS AND/OR CHILDREN AT RISK
* SUPPORTING THE PEOPLE FACILITATING CONTINUOUS QUALITY
IMPROVEMENT AND SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT
