With a specific focus on the unique factors related to the field of early childhood care and education, this book discusses the concept of well-being and how it applies specifically to teachers of young children. The authors provide a rationale and guidance for integrating teacher well-being content into both preservice and inservice professional learning environments. This comprehensive resource also explores the implications of, and connections between, teacher well-being, equity, and social justice. The authors share examples of well-being programs that have been implemented throughout the United States and examine the policy and practice efforts that are necessary to embed well-being culture into early care and education programs. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBook Features: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eAn orientation to teacher well-being for the field of early care and education that includes definitions, rationales, impacts, examples, strategies, and recommendations.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eResearch-based and practical so readers not only understand the importance of teacher well-being but also come away with specific ideas for application and implementation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAccessible language and user-friendly format that includes graphics and callout boxes to extend readers' understanding of the content and provide opportunities for self-reflection.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSupport for a wide range of stakeholders, including professionals in childcare, preschool, and private and public school programs.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAngela C.
