# Who Uses ASQ?

##

## Professionals who need a reliable screening system that’s easy to implement.

Professionals working with young children have busy, unpredictable days—they need tools they can rely on. ASQ **®** is the result of nearly 40 years of research: every aspect and feature has been designed to support professionals’ busy routines and to dovetail with daily processes and activities.

With its parent-friendly design and flexibility in administration, ASQ works in the entire range of settings where young children are served—from child care centers to public health fairs. ASQ is designed for early childhood educators, pediatricians, interventionists, and more:

#### What ASQ Users are Saying

“ **We chose ASQ because it is easy to do, low cost, culturally sensitive, and it meets our purpose of basic screening for our children’s development.** Our infant teachers base their curriculum on each individual child based on the ASQ.”

Kathy Bostic, Program Supervisor, Pinehurst Child Care Center
