        Project Description:
        The Learn the Signs. Act Early COVID response teams project will focus on training and material dissemination to targeted groups across ND. Training includes the development and implementation of activities that facilitate knowledge and skill acquisition of different groups of people.  These groups include the partners on the state leadership team, providers from various early childhood programs or other programs serving young children and families (e.g., family advocacy), or families and other caregivers. Training will also include knowledge and skill acquisition as part of personnel preparation programs, for example pediatric residents, or early childhood community college students. Knowledge and skill acquisition can focus on the LTSAE program, the 4-steps of early identification, or the resiliency of young children and their families.
