DOWNLOAD EBOOKHigh-quality early care and education for children from birth to kindergarten entry is critical to positive child development and has the potential to generate economic returns, which benefit not only children and their families but society at large. Despite the great promise of early care and education, it has been financed in such a way that high-quality early care and education have only been available to a fraction of the families needing and desiring it and does little to further develop the early-care-and-education (ECE) workforce. It is neither sustainable nor adequate to provide the quality of care and learning that children and families needâ€"a shortfall that further perpetuates and drives inequality. Transforming the Financing of Early Care and Education outlines a framework for a funding strategy that will provide reliable, accessible high-quality early care and education for young children from birth to kindergarten entry, including a highly qualified and adequately compensated workforce that is consistent with the vision outlined in the 2015 report, Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8: A Unifying Foundation. The recommendations of this report are based on essential features of child development and early learning, and on principles for high-quality professional practice at the levels of individual practitioners, practice environments, leadership, systems, policies, and resource allocation.

This report examined: (1) trends in federal estimates of the number and proportion of eligible children and families who receive child care subsidies; (2) factors that may affect trends in estimates of the number of children served; and (3) what is known about the extent to which access to subsidies supports low-income parents¿ employment.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"David Blau has chosen seven economists to write chapters that review the emerging economic literature on the supply of child care, parental demand for care, child care cost and quality, and to discuss the implications of these analyses for public policy. The book succeeds in presenting that research in understandable terms to policy makers and serves economists as a useful review of the child care literature....provides an excellent case study of the value of economic analysis of public policy issues." —Arleen Leibowitz, Journal of Economic Literature "There is no doubt this is a timely book....The authors of this volume have succeeded in presenting the economic material in a nontechnical manner that makes this book an excellent introduction to the role of economics in public policy analysis, and specifically child care policy....the most comprehensive introduction currently available." —Cori Rattelman, Industrial and Labor Relations Review

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis analysis summarizes a recent report by the U.S. General Accounting Office (GAO) that found that, since January 2001, 23 states have adopted policies that reduce the overall availability of child care assistance for low-income working families. The GAOs findings indicate that entry into and remaining in the child care assistance system "may be less possible for families, particularly for families not associated with the welfare system." As long as child care resources are constrained, states will need to make difficult policy trade-offs when allocating child care assistance among needy families. Mezey concludes that increased federal child care funding is needed to effectuate Congressional intent and ensure that more vulnerable, low-income, working families receive the child care assistance they need to support their families and stay off of public assistance.
