Outcome Measures for IECMHC

Choose and use diagram

As states, tribes and communities continue to build the evidence base for the effectiveness of IECMHC in early care and education settings, a common question is: which tools should we be using to measure impact? 

This Choose and Use interactive search engine is designed to help you plan for capturing data on outcomes of IECMHC.  We have summarized key information about measures that have been used previously in two or more IECMHC program evaluations to assess child, teacher, teacher-child relationship and classroom/program level impacts.
