** Announcing a New Getting it Right Summary Resource & Webinar Summer Series
------------------------------------------------------------

We are thrilled to share a new summary ([link removed]) of the Foundation's publication, Getting it Right: Using Implementation Research to Improve Outcomes in Early Care and Education ([link removed]) . Early care and education (ECE) researchers, practitioners, and policymakers can now easily access key takeaways from the publication as it attempts to answer three key questions for the field: What does research tell us about the effectiveness and implementation of ECE programs across the birth to 8 continuum? What still needs to be understood? How do we get smarter in designing future research directions and approaches?

Now, a wide range of audiences may utilize this resource to engage in meaningful exploration of what works, for whom, and under what conditions to better understand how to improve programs and policies and achieve stronger outcomes for all young children.
