This survey was conducted under the auspices of the Office of Child Care Subsidy (located within the Child Care Services Division, Alabama Department of Human Resources) from September 2016 through June 2017. The survey was disseminated to all known providers of child care services in Alabama. Of the 3,042 providers contacted, 1,832 (60%) responded to the survey. After eliminating surveys with incomplete and/or inconsistent information, 1,698 responses were used for the market rate analysis. The final sample represents responses from child care providers in 66 of the 67 Alabama counties and from all nine of the Child Care Management Agencies regions that are administered by the Office of Child Care Subsidy.
