Measuring What Matters: Equity Considerations in Early Childhood Measurement Tools 

The early childhood field has traditionally relied on measures that may not reflect the parenting practices and values of families, particularly families of color. Presenters from the Institute for Child Success discuss how the early childhood field can use measures that better align with community values and practices. They share how early childhood professionals can consider the cultural relevance of early childhood and parenting measurement tools and learn how to use the IMPACT Measures Tool® to identify culturally relevant measures that are aligned with their community’s values.
