Description:
Millions of families need child care in order to work, but many simply can’t afford it. This leads to parents having to reduce the number of hours they work or leave the workforce entirely and children missing out on the early learning and care experiences that can help them thrive. The Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) provides child care assistance to low-income families and improves the overall quality of child care. (author abstract)
