State-by-state map on local impact of child care funding cliff

Description:

On September 30, 2023, critical child care funding from the American Rescue Plan expired. This funding helped 220,000 child care programs remain operational and helped 10 million children and their families access affordable child care. Now that this stabilization funding has expired, child care programs across the country are being forced to raise their prices or close their doors permanently. The below map shows how much each state could gain if Congress passed $16 billion in emergency child care funding, which President Biden and many congressional Democrats have called for. Additionally, for relevant states, we have linked to local news stories that spotlight how the expiration of this funding has impacted families and early educators in that state. (author abstract)
