As early childhood learning environments grow more and more
diverse, schools and programs must address inequitable practices
and policies so that every child learns, belongs, and thrives. The
practical solutions programs need are in this groundbreaking book,
the first guide to coaching early childhood educators in Diversity,
Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility, and Belonging (DEIAB) practices.
Expertly converting theory into concrete action steps, this book is
a reader‐friendly, step‐by‐step guide to launching
transformative DEIAB work—or expanding the work your program or
school is already doing. You'll discover how to coach early
childhood educators in creating an equity‐focused classroom
culture, providing them with guidance on instructional delivery,
curriculum content, and teaching materials. You'll learn how to
advance multicultural education by implementing big‐picture
changes to program policies, hiring practices, and marketing
materials. Throughout the book, an illuminating case study traces
the progress and setbacks of a sample program as they use an
equity‐based lens to enhance their learning environments and
teaching practices. An essential professional development resource
for school and program leaders and an ideal textbook for early
education courses, this timely book will help you empower educators
to ensure equity, access, and belonging for all children and
families. Learn How To: Use the invaluable Anti‐Ism Scale to
assess your program's current status and monitor growth Recognize
your program's "hidden curriculum"—biases embedded in policies,
practices, and materials Identify how the intersectionality of
social identities influence each person's experiences, both
positively and negatively Create an effective action plan to coach
educators on a journey toward greater equality and inclusion Put
your DEIAB plan into action through book studies, Equity and
Diversity Workgroups, and other team learning opportunities

community resistance Ensure continuous growth and improvement
