Abstract: The evaluation of Toronto First Duty concludes that integrated professional supports improve the quality of early childhood programs and reduce risks for parents and children. By engaging parents in the school and their children's early learning, children's social, emotional, and academic readiness for school is enhanced. Integrated program delivery is also cost-effective, serving more families, more flexibly, for the same costs.
