Updated: Nov 4, 2020

The Institute for Childhood Preparedness was on the road last week - and presented findings from a recent national study of child care preparedness on November 14, 2018, at the American Public Health Association’s annual conference in San Diego, CA.

The Institute Presented Findings From A Study About Early Childhood Preparedness

Findings from the study suggest:

  • Nearly 90% of child care providers report having written preparedness plans.

  • Child care providers report needing more preparedness-related educational trainings. Providers require further resources and greater technical assistance. They know this will help them feel more comfortable executing these plans when/if needed.

  • In particular, only 45% of providers reported feeling prepared for active shooter situations.

Findings Show A Need For Greater Preparedness Training Among Childcare Professionals

These findings are meaningful and the full study will be published in the near future. That’s why the Institute for Childhood Preparedness is offering active shooter trainings. We created these trainings to prepare members of the early childcare workforce.

It is the goal of integrated pest management (IPM) to limit hazards to human health, beneficial creatures, and the environment by putting an emphasis on the use of non-chemical measures first and only resorting to pesticides when absolutely required. geometry dash online
