Funding Our Future: Generating State and Local Tax Revenue for Quality Early Care and Education was informed by an active advisory group—the Child Care Revenue Work Group—made up of 30 experts—including tax policy experts and early childhood leaders, many with experience spearheading dedicated state or local tax initiatives.
