The CDE works collaboratively to develop a streamlined and consolidated state plan for<br />
early care and education services that meets the needs of California’s families and<br />
children. This collaboration includes Head Start and Early Head Start through a federal<br />
grant to support the California Head Start-State Collaboration Office housed in the CDE.<br />
The CDE also works collaboratively with First Five California to improve the quality and<br />
availability of child care and development programs statewide.<br />
Three other programs connect early childhood education, parental involvement, and<br />
family literacy services for families in California. These include the William F. Goodling<br />
Even Start Family Literacy, Migrant Education Even Start, and American Indian Early<br />
Childhood Education programs.<br />
Currently, more than a dozen CDE-administered programs are designed to meet the<br />
varied needs of California’s families. The eligibility for federal- and state-subsidized<br />
services continues to be based primarily on income and need, with additional criteria<br />
depending on program type and funding source. The CDE is committed to maximizing<br />
parental choice of care and to improving the availability and quality of infant, preschool,<br />
and before- and after-school services. Services to children at risk of abuse and neglect<br />
and children receiving protective services through county welfare departments remain a<br />
top priority. The CDE has also implemented several initiatives to support and assist<br />
child care and development programs to create welcoming and inclusive environments<br />
for children with exceptional needs.<br />
