The Fund for Public Health in New York City (FPHNYC) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that is dedicated to the advancement of the health and well-being of all New Yorkers. To this end, in partnership with the New York City Health Department, FPHNYC incubates innovative public health initiatives implemented by the NYC Health Department to advance community health throughout the city. It facilitates partnerships, often new and unconventional, between government and the private sector to develop, test, and launch new initiatives. These collaborations speed the execution of demonstration projects, effect expansion of successful pilot programs, and support rapid implementation to meet the public health needs of individuals, families, and communities across New York City.

Program Overview

The Enhancing Quality in Childcare through Developmental Screenings (EQCCDS) goal is to increase developmental screenings in non-DOE childcare programs located in 23 zip codes in Brooklyn and Queens neighborhoods that have low rates of referral to the Early Intervention Program. Specifically, this project aims to:

• Integrate developmental screenings into childcare program’s procedures and services, and thereby, raising the quality of the programs.
• Identify children with potential disabilities or developmental delays and help their families access the early intervention program so that their children can get evaluated, and if found eligible, receive services.
• Increase and promote racial equity in identification of delays and receipt of developmental services among children ages birth to five years in NYC.
