✦ Synopsis

Abstract

We present the Early Head Start MAP (Manualized Assessment of Progress) system, a newly developed program evaluation protocol for Early Head Start (EHS). Briefly, EHS is a prevention program for low‐income families with infants, toddlers, and pregnant women. The EHS MAP protocol was designed to be incorporated into the fabric of the EHS program, utilized by all EHS staff members with input from EHS families. As such, it serves to document ongoing progress of children and families while enrolled in the program, as well as the fidelity of services provided. Preliminary empirical results are presented to exemplify the nature of efficacy and fidelity data that can be obtained with this EHS MAP system. Implications of conducting program evaluation are discussed as related to Early Head Start service delivery. ©2002 Michigan Association for Infant Mental Health.
