Bussanich P, Corona A. 2018. Leveraging partnerships to build better systems of care for early childhood development. Washington, DC: Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs, 24 pp.

Annotation: This presentation from AMCHP (Association of Maternal & Child Health Programs) discusses leveraging partnerships between Title V and Head Start to build better systems of care for early childhood development. It explains the role of Title V as the nation's longest-standing public health legislation focused on improving maternal and child health, including children with special health care needs. The presentation highlights how AMCHP supports states in addressing developmental screening through training, systems coordination, and data integration, with specific focus on National Performance Measure 6 (percent of children receiving developmental screening). The session addresses opportunities for cross-system collaboration, tools for aligning early childhood programs, and understanding developmental screening's role within comprehensive systems of early childhood services. Presenters Paige Bussanich and Anna Corona share resources including eLearning modules, data integration toolkits, and examples of successful state collaborations.
