Data Insights on the Road
Connect with other local data users while learning about ECLDS, SLEDS, the Minnesota Student Survey, and the MDE Data Center. Daylong sessions will be held at various locations across the state so you can work alongside others who are interested in using and sharing publicly available data for program improvement, asset-framing, and strategic planning.
We’re focusing the content on information useful for Education Partnerships Coalition members, ECLDS+SLEDS Regional Coaching Network members, Regional Labor Market Analysts, Full-Service Community School partnership staff, Regional Prevention Coordinators, and more.
Plans are still being finalized. Please reach out to us at sleds.support@state.mn.us so we can share dates, locations, and registration information with you.

Visit the ECLDS Census Data Tool to access your county and/or state’s data today.
The Department of Human Services is excited to share a new effort to improve communications with child care providers and early educators – the Early Childhood Connector newsletter. This cross-agency effort includes a quarterly newsletter and updates to child care providers and early educators in Minnesota. The Early Childhood Connector will highlight resources, supports and updates on child care and early education from the Minnesota Children’s Cabinet and Departments of Education, Health, and Human Services. Content will be tailored to licensed and non-licensed child care, Head Start, and prekindergarten programs.
By signing up for the Early Childhood Connector, you can expect a quarterly newsletter, the Great Start Update, and occasional updates.
