Description:
This report describes the first year activities and results of the two-year ECEAP Family Support Pilot (school years 2015-16 and 2016-17). The goal of the pilot is to strengthen outcomes for children and families participating in the Washington State Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program (ECEAP) through the use of new research-based approaches. ECEAP, overseen by the Department of Early Learning (DEL), is Washington's pre-kindergarten program. It is designed to prepare 3- and 4-year-old children from low-income and at-risk families for success in school and in life. ECEAP's comprehensive "whole-child" approach includes: preschool education; family support; parent involvement; and, health and nutrition services. (author abstract)
