Economic, developmental, and educational research shows that early childhood education (ECE), particularly that which is high in quality, is a sound investment in children's well-being. Presently, children's participation in ECE is supported via a variety of funding pathways. For instance, some children's participation is supported via private tuition, whereas others' is supported via a host of city, state, and/or federal subsidies. Regarding the latter, subsidized pathways often have specific requirements; for instance, the Head Start program serves children who reside in poverty. There are benefits to blending these funding pathways within a single program, so that a program can serve children from a variety of backgrounds within a single classroom. However, there are challenges to this blending, as each funding pathway has its own requirements. This white paper provides a case study of one ECE program that blends a variety of funding pathways while also demonstrating the complexities of doing so. (author abstract)
