Process to Outreach/Onboard Programs and Providers

Quality Counts North State (QCNS) uses a systemic approach to assess, improve, and communicate the level of quality in early care and education programs. Early childhood education providers interested in joining QCNS can apply online at https://www.qualitycountsnorthstate.com. The Local Coordinator in each county can help by answering any questions. Contact information for each county,Local Coordinator can be found on the QCNS website. Once a provider has applied, the Local Coordinator will contact them to schedule an orientation and get them started on their quality journey.

Quality Improvement Program Support Strategies

By participating in Quality Counts North State (QCNS), early care and education providers embark on a path of continuous quality improvement. QCNS participants are eligible for all professional development training offered by QCNS and by the Region 2 Hub. Once a provider has completed an application to join QCNS, they will receive a Quality Counts Orientation from QCNS staff. They then begin monthly mentor coach visits. The mentor coach will help the provider explore potential areas for improvement and develop a Quality Improvement Plan (QIP). Mentor coaches continue to meet with providers on a regular basis to monitor progress toward QIP goals and to help establish new goals toward quality improvement.

Local Approach to Offering Financial Incentives and Stipends

Quality Counts North State (QCNS) participants are able to earn allocation funds and stipends that can be used for professional development expenses and non-consumable materials to improve their indoor and outdoor environments. QCNS also offers a scholarship program for participants working on obtaining ECE units and degrees in ECE or closely related fields. In addition, QCNS offers an annual competative conference sponsorship opportunity. Participants are also connected with stipend opportunties through the Workforce Pathways Grant.

Testimonial

“Dear Quality Counts North State, Thank you so much for the opportunity to be a part of this wonderful program. The QRIS program has been substantial in providing enrichment to our children in our program. The quality toys that I have been able to purchase with the grant from the QRIS program has enabled me to fulfill my backyard play space for the children in my care for all areas of their development. Large and small motor development. Science, dramatic play, literacy, music, art and math.”

Success Story

An Administrator from Glenn County Office of Education shared: Dear Quality Counts North State, The grant we received has been a wonderful help to our childcare program. In the past we had very little money for new toys or materials; the grant has provided our facilities with up-to-date toys and books for the children. We are also very pleased that our teachers are receiving regular mentoring sessions. We have already seen positive effects from the mentoring sessions. Thank you.
