Process to Outreach/Onboard Programs and Providers

Keys to Quality outreaches to programs through a variety of strategies, including the Local Planning Council website, local resource and referral agency, local stakeholder meetings and events, mailings, email/web-based marketing, and partner agencies. Providers who inquire about participation are contacted and an initial meeting is held to determine the best level of engagement. Once a level of service has been established, resources and supports are provided immediately.

Quality Improvement Program Support Strategies

Quality improvement strategies for all types of sites include a variety of training, coaching, and assistance including materials and resources that support site plans and identified needs. Sites at higher tiers are supported to develop peer-based mentoring/coaching communities.

Local Approach to Offering Financial Incentives and Stipends

Financial and material incentives are provided for sites/providers engaged in quality improvement. Individual professional development stipends are offered through the local Workforce Pathways Stipend Program.

The program has been very helpful in gaining new skills to support a child’s development and through the use of appropriate materials. The coach’s support is the most helpful!

Success Story

A State Preschool Director shared: I whole-heartedly appreciate and am grateful for our local Keys to Quality Program. We have approximately 60 staff participating who value the many benefits‚ not only coaching, but the high-quality professional development. Engaging in reflective practices with regards to the matrix elements has allowed us to deepen our understanding of how to provide the highest quality of services to our children and their families. More importantly, I think the Keys to Quality program has inspired us to really practice and become lifelong learners where we examine our craft and continuously reach for our goals.
