Communities who are already engaged in early childhood pyramid work through the school district must support implementation in 9-15 center-based child care centers or family child care homes.
-
Participate in ongoing Pyramid Model training and coaching using a train-coach-train model, with the support of Pyramid Coaches
-
Develop and sustain a leadership teams within the community to ensure sustainability of the Pyramid Model.
