Goal

To coordinate the work of various early childhood Technical Assistance (TA) efforts working with states to avoid duplication, share knowledge and improve delivery and impact of TA. To further strengthen the collaborative possibilities and to take advantage of new technologies for doing so, this web site was created. It is intended to be a hub of resources for and communication among Consortium participants and other early childhood TA partners.
