Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems SEED Project: Scaling Effective Early Childhood Systems Development (ECCS SEED)

The purpose of the Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems SEED Project: Scaling Effective Early Childhood Systems Development (ECCS SEED) is to address the root causes of chronic disease in early childhood by improving families" access to health care, screening kids early for physical and mental health needs, and connecting parents to services that enable them to provide for their children. The ECCS SEED Project will partner with states and communities to support evidence-based strategies that improve access to quality care for prenatal-to-age-5 (P-5) families and promote healthy child development and family well-being.
