Location: Altoona, Pennsylvania
The primary focus of the Keystone STARS Inclusion Specialist is to support early learning programs in ELRC Region 6 in creating nurturing learning environments that advance social-emotional and behavioral health outcomes among children, families, and early childhood professionals. This position works across a broad range of early care and education (ECE) settings to promote wellness in young children by increasing the capacity of adult caregivers to support children's developmental needs.
Our goals are to increase child and caregiver resilience while reducing challenging behaviors (including those that lead to suspensions and expulsions) by utilizing evidence-based best practices; providing early identification of behavioral concerns; and making referrals to appropriate community services. In addition, the coach will provide onsite assistance to ECE childcare programs in the form of observations, consultation, and professional development.
