ECD for Orphans and Vulnerable Children
In March 2011, USAID released a report titled Early Childhood Development for Orphans and Vulnerable Children: Key Considerations, providing an overview of important early childhood development (ECD) interventions and current evidence of ECD programs implemented to support orphans and vulnerable children (OVC). The report details critical elements of ECD programs as well as provides key findings from prior literature and evaluations. It also includes answers to common questions, resources on how to learn more about ECD, and examples of well-developed ECD programs that target OVC.
