This analysis provides new estimates of what it would cost to sustain the child care system through the coronavirus pandemic. We estimate that at least $9.6 billion is needed each month to fully fund existing providers in the child care system—which would allow them to retain their staff at full pay and eliminate cost burdens for families—and to offer safe, comprehensive emergency care at no cost to an estimated 6 million children of essential workers in need of care. This Technical Appendix provides detailed information about our data sources, assumptions, and analytic process. (author abstract)
