Ready At Five, in partnership with the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) Division of Early Childhood Development (DECD), and the Institute of Innovation and Implementation University of Maryland School of Social Work, has developed a Family Engagement in Early Childhood website for parents and families titled "Maryland Families Ready To Connect." This website offers information to parents and families about what family engagement is, how to practice it and the benefits of building a partnership with providers and schools to support young children's school readiness. Website topics include school readiness, supporting transitions, partnering with providers, families as leaders and advocates, choosing quality child care, and learning from 0-3. The Family Engagement in Early Childhood website is available in both English and Spanish.
