In 2015, the Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) was awarded an initial Early Head Start-Child Care Partnership (EHS-CCP) grant to bring together Early Head Start (EHS) and child care through layered funding to provide comprehensive and continuous services to infants, toddlers and families with low-incomes and those who meet other categorical eligibility and priority populations. The EHS-CCP grant catalyzed the development of the Quality Improvement Network (QIN). As an EHS-CCP grantee, OSSE makes this annual report available to the public as required by the Head Start Act.
