Devereux Early Childhood Assessment (DECA) Kit

Assess your Pre/K students’ positive social and emotional resources and abilities with the Devereux Early Childhood Assessment (DECA) kit. The DECA kit is a helpful complement to the SECOND STEP Pre/K program. SECOND STEP lessons strengthen children’s self-control, attachment, and initiative—important protective factors identified in the DECA program.

The centerpiece of the DECA kit is a user-friendly, strength-based standardized assessment for children aged two to five, with instructions for administering, scoring, and interpreting the results and a screener for behavioral concerns.
