Abstract
ABSTRACT There is a need for dissemination and implementation (D&I) research and strategies in workplace well-being programs. The purpose of this study was to qualitatively assess the implementation of the Well-being of the Early Childhood Workforce in Low-resourced Locations (WELL) program, a well-being program for early childhood education teachers, support staff, and leadership. A total of 27 semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted, guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). Inductive and deductive coding were used based on the CFIR. Thematic analysis revealed that constructs from two CFIR domains (inner setting and intervention characteristics) emerged as most impactful to implementation. Leveraging D&I strategies revealed critical barriers and facilitators to implementing and sustaining the WELL program. The results of this study can improve the success of WELL and other interventions to more effectively reduce health disparities and burnout in the ECE workforce.
