EQuIPD is a technical assistance organization that provides support and advice to early care and education programs in Guilford County to help increase child care quality. We are funded by the Partnership for Children of Guilford County and implemented through UNC-Greensboro.
Our mission is to nurture and empower early care and education professionals & programs with tools to support & sustain success. We work closely with individuals in child care programs to help them problem-solve classroom issues such as room arrangement, teacher-child interactions, and curriculum development. We also assist in enhancing the work environment for staff and provide professional development planning and training.
Though we do not work directly with families, we do help connect early care and education programs with local resources should the program have a child or family with a particular need.
We believe strongly that every child deserves a quality preschool experience so we work diligently to recognize the unique strengths of each child care program while facilitating goal setting for making their programs even better.
