Abstract

Better Beginnings is a universal program for children and their families that aims to develop literacy skills through fostering a love of books and language. While the program's universality is considered a strength, it was recognised that there is also a need for targeted strategies and resources to better support Indigenous families and culturally and linguistically diverse (CaLD) families.
