This report highlights research conducted at a Connecticut early childhood center that demonstrates how a well-designed facility can result in more frequent teacher-child interactions, more productive child-initiated play, higher staff morale, and lower staff turnover - all essential factors in program quality. The paper also offers examples of successful efforts to create high quality child care facilities in communities supported by LISC around the country.
