For over 30 years, Child Care Aware® of America (CCAoA) has kept the nation informed and advocated for affordable, quality child care for all families. This year, in response to COVID-19, we focus our efforts on documenting the devastating impact of the pandemic on the child care system. Picking Up the Pieces: Building a Better Child Care System Post COVID-19 combines our annual report, The U.S. and the High Price of Child Care and State Fact Sheets into one report, along with additional data gathered from Child Care Resource and Referral agencies and other sources as recently as July 2020. In addition, the report features information about CCAoA's new Child Care Data Center that includes child care data and stories for six pilot states: Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, Oregon, Washington and Wisconsin.
