NAEYC RESOURCES TO HELP STATES AS THEY WRITE RTT-ELC APPLICATIONS
To assist states in their thinking and completion of the Race to the Top - Early Learning Challenge (RTT- ELC) grant applications, NAEYC has compiled relevant online resources that range from web pages, to briefs and reports, to position statements. We hope these resources will help states as they complete their applications. NAEYC policy staffs are also available for technical assistance throughout the state application and implementation process. To view the compilation of resources available at the NAEYC website, click here(clicking on the first headline under “New Resources” will take you directly to the compilation).
