RAPID is a program of ongoing national and place-based surveys designed to gather essential information on the needs, health promoting behaviors, and well-being of young children and their caregivers.
Our objective is to make timely and actionable data on the experiences of parents, caregivers and young children available in an ongoing manner to support parent- and data-informed decision-making.
RAPID is based in the Stanford Center on Early Childhood . The SCEC conducts research and creates tools to support children, families, caregivers, and practitioners. The SCEC’s work spans research, policy, and practice essential to advancing the world’s capacity to nurture its youngest learners and help them reach their full potential. The SCEC is an initiative of the Stanford Accelerator for Learning .
