ABC Quality

ABC Quality is South Carolina’s statewide quality rating and improvement system (QRIS) for early care and education providers.

Our Vision: Every child in South Carolina will have equal opportunity for success in school based on equitable access to a high quality early care and education system. 

Our Mission:  South Carolina is committed to an early care and education system that focuses on building high quality, comprehensive programs that provide integrated services.

Our Services:

• Provide early care and education providers the criteria, tools, and resources they need to improve the quality of their programs. 
• Establish Quality Ratings of early care and education providers, which parents can access to make informed child care decisions. 
• Enable early care and education providers to become eligible to receive SC Voucher, a program that pays providers so they can care for children from low-income families.
