Last week, members of the Everyday Quality team traveled to Atlanta, GA, to attend the 2023
National Association for Family Child Care Conference and host a table in the exhibit hall.
Dr. Alison Hooper and Dr. Rena Hallam presented a session called “Advocating for a Holistic
View of Quality in Family Child Care” to a full room of family child care educators, quality
improvement specialists, and advocates where they shared information about the EDQ and
project goals.
We got to meet many family child care educators at our exhibit hall table and discuss the EDQ
project and hear about educators’ own experiences with quality improvement. Several
educators also took a short survey about quality in family child care.
It was a great conference, and we hope to be back next year. Thanks to NAFCC for having us!
