I thought our readers would be interested in a new policy brief on continuity of care. The policy brief, The Importance of Continuity of Care: Policies and Practices in Early Childhood Systems and Programs, includes a section on research detailing the importance of continuity of care and an analysis of state policies and programming that help young children develop secure relationships.
The policy brief can be found at: http://www.theounce.org/resources/publications.
The primary author, Judy Reidt-Parker, now a consultant at Ounce of Prevention Fund, has extensive experience in Head Start & Early Head Start, child care, and home visiting, and she served for many years as policy analyst at Maine Children’s Alliance.
