With contributions from 25 early childhood researchers, this essential reference will help ensure that interventions are not only implemented effectively, but also scaled up and sustained so they help as many children as possible. Administrators, researchers, and policymakers will
- examine how the growing field of implementation science can help close the research-to-practice gap in early childhood
- discover the core components needed to implement and sustain change in programs and systems
- explore through specific examples how to build practitioner competency and promote high-fidelity implementation of early childhood innovations
- get in-depth guidance on replicating and scaling up programs at the district and state level
- learn from a helpful five-step model for assessing the fidelity of interventions
- understand how to create readiness for change and why it's so important
- see how implementation science can inform the process of systems change for early childhood professional development systems and Quality Rating and Improvement Systems (QRIS)
A foundational volume on the fundamentals of implementation science, this book will help improve long-term outcomes for all young children. Early childhood programs will learn how to replicate and sustain best practices, researchers will be ready to conduct more informed program evaluations, and policymakers will discover what it really takes to have effective, sustainable programs and systems.

About the Author
Allison Metz, Ph.D., is a Developmental Psychologist and Scientist for the National Implementation Research Network at the Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute in the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She specialises in effective implementation and scaling-up of evidence-based and evidence-informed programs and strategies in early childhood, early care and education and child welfare settings. Her recent work involves improving the well-being of children who exit the foster care system and the evaluation of a professional development system anchored in an online Associates degree for infant and toddler teachers for the Office of Head Start.
Dr. Ivelisse Martinez-Beck coordinates the work of the child care research team at the Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE), developing the child care policy research agenda, managing large research projects, and representing OPRE and the child care policy research perspective in diverse federal interagency research work groups. Prior to joining The Administration for Children and Families, Dr. Martinez-Beck held a Society for Research in Child Development Executive Branch Policy Fellowship with the Child Care Bureau where she was involved in designing a research agenda to answer policy-relevant questions for Child Care and Development Fund State Administrators and other key stakeholders. A recent focus of her work has been on issues related to the quality of early care and education settings and links to young children's developmental outcomes.
