Examining Child Outcomes and Well-Being in Early Care and Education Settings Data Workshop
July 7-9, 2008
Ann Arbor, MI

This workshop is designed to introduce participants to key datasets that present a variety of indicators of children's well-being and influences on their early experiences, including family practices, teacher perspectives, and quality of early care and education.

The workshop will feature the latest data available from the Head Start Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES), the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Birth Cohort (ECLS-B), and the National Head Start/Public School Early Childhood Transition Demonstration Study. In addition, participants will receive a preview of data that will be available from the Head Start Impact Study (HSIS).

Sponsored by Research Connections, this workshop will be offered in Ann Arbor, MI as part of the ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Science Research. There is no fee to attend and travel stipends are available for participants interested in using these data to analyze issues related to child care and early education, including self-sufficiency.
