Early Head Start home visits and classrooms: Stability, predictors, and thresholds of quality

Description:

An important aspect of the Early Head Start conceptual framework is the association between the provision of high quality services and children's growth and development. This report describes Early Head Start classroom and home visit quality, the stability of quality while children are enrolled, and the predictors of quality. The report also examines the association between quality and child and parenting outcomes, including whether there are threshold effects in these associations. (author abstract)
