        <Description>Shared Services - This activity will support quality in all settings where children receive care and implement an innovative approach for management and leadership designed to support early childhood providers. The two overarching goals are: (1) reduce or share costs through joint purchasing, bulk buying, staff sharing, centralized administration or some combination of these, based on Early Childhood Education Program needs; and (2) shared capacity-building in program, administration, or both, through the use of common tools and systems, shared mentoring and supervision, and/or collaborative improvement processes.A shared services web platform (http://www.ecesharedresources.org) is a cornerstone of this project. This national platform is currently being customized to Maine's specifications.A second cornerstone of shared services supports formation of regional alliances to guide local solutions. Within Maine, regional alliances are in the early stages of development in some areas; in others the work has not commenced.</Description>
