Laura Johns, Director, Quality Initiatives, Bright from the Start: Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning - March 8, 2013
“Bringing a large QRIS initiative to scale requires ongoing validation at various points of the implementation/intervention process. Halle, Martinez-Beck and Metz provide a valuable road map on how a state system can responsibly utilize diminishing resources to create an effective evidence-based QRIS.”

“A pleasure to read from cover to cover . . . the first book to purposefully apply what is known about implementation science to a particular field. For anyone interested in improving early care and education outcomes, this book will provide guidance for years to come.”

“Bringing the 'what' of early childhood evidence together with the 'how' of implementation, this book offers readers a deep, rich, and practical review of what's necessary to achieve socially significant outcomes and sustainable services.”
