2025 International Inclusion Institute

This session on developing and implementing child guidance policies will equip participants with the knowledge and tools to create and refine child guidance policies that address challenging behaviors, support early childhood development, and ensure that all children have the opportunity to thrive in inclusive environments. We will introduce and explore the Teaching and Guidance Essential Policies Checklist (TAGPEC) to help early childhood administrators, TA providers, program coaches, and practitioners design and implement system-level policies to support and promote children’s social-emotional development, prevent challenging behaviors, and to support families and staff.
