ECNA Tool

There are mounting expectations to demonstrate program effectiveness and impacts relative to the intended developmental outcomes for children in the early years. For this reason, it is critical for the early childhood field to have valid frameworks and tools to help them identify and understand their most pressing EC needs. As early childhood organizations and initiatives engage in evaluations more regularly, internally and externally, our EC tool can help to assess the state of their internal EC, to support and carry out critical evaluations. This will help early childhood stakeholders identify specific areas where resources could be diverted to most effectively support EC building activities in their organizations.
