County Program Profile: Santa Clara and San Benito Consortium

The QCC County Program Profile provides county data from the Common Data File (CDF) and the Annual Progress Report (APR). For counties that are a part of a consortium, the QCC County Program Profile provides a combined view of the CDF and APR. Both qualitative and quantitative data are presented to provide a local view of early learning and care climate.

Time Period: 2019–2020

QRIS :: San Benito

San Benito County serves providers and families in our county. Since the start, 25 providers have participated in improving quality. This year was our first year implementing the Quality Improvement System (QIS), but not the rating portion or the more advanced Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS).

Process to Outreach/Onboard Programs and Providers

We go out to the sites and provide one-on-one visits at a time that is most convenient to the provider. The eligibility for the program is done in a way that makes the program available to everyone who is interested. We begin our initial visits in August and continue until early June, which makes us available to the providers all year.

Quality Improvement Program Support Strategies

Every program participant receives a coaching visit once a month or more depending on their need. The coaching program integrates Family Strengthening, Parents As Teachers, ASQ and ASQ-SE, and PKOF strategies. The California Preschool Instruction Network classes are offered once a month. Other training opportunities are presented to the program participants as they become available.

Local Approach to Offering Financial Incentives and Stipends

We offer financial incentives for completing professional development hours, coaching, and assessments. Based on how much is completed, the program participants receive either materials needed at their site or a stipend.

Testimonial

The Quality Counts program has been a great resource for me and my students. With the programs and trainings that they offer, I was able to integrate new techniques and methods into my routine, which made my work with the children more intentional and productive. I have seen an improvement in the children’s self-regulation and their ability to express their feelings. I have enjoyed being a part of the Quality Counts program.
