This book was released on 2011 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 12 million American children regularly rely on child care to support their healthy development and school success. Of these, over 1.6 million children receive a child care subsidy from the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) program each month. In addition, CCDF helps leverage child care investments from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program and other funding streams, resulting in financial support to make child care more affordable for a total of 2.5 million children each month. Each year, CCDF invests over $5 billion ($7 billion in 2009 from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act), plus additional funds transferred from TANF to CCDF. States, Territories, and Tribes annually spend $1 billion to support child care quality improvement, resulting in better learning environments and more effective caregivers in child care centers and family child care homes across the country. At the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is pursuing a comprehensive approach to helping more children in low-income families access high-quality care. ACF's Office of Child Care (OCC) administers the CCDF and works with State, Territory, and Tribal governments to provide strong support for children and their families as they juggle work schedules and struggle to find affordable, high-quality child care for their children. This paper provides details on the following: (1) Pathways to Excellence for Child Care Programs; (2) Pathways to Excellence for Child Care Professionals; and (3) Pathways to Stronger Policies and Accountability. (Contains 1 footnote.).

Download or read book The Impact of Child Care Center Partnerships with Head Start Agencies on Parents Satisfaction with Child Care and Early Education written by Jung-Eun Kim and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this dissertation is to examine whether the public-private partnership influences the quality of programming at client level by applying the partnership example in early childhood development as seen in the child care center's partnership with Head Start agency. Specific aims are: 1) to examine how a Head Start partnership influences parent satisfaction with child care and education activities; 2) to examine how organizational investments influence parent satisfaction, and 3) to examine what characteristics of the Head Start partnership influence parent satisfaction. Key theories in an effort to understand the public-private partnerships in social services delivery have two main viewpoints: 1) economic perspectives to see the partnership as contracting and economic efficiency-based relationships, and 2) organizational and institutional perspective to explain the dynamic collaborative processes of the partnership. The data was drawn from Partnership Impact Research Project, 2001-2004, quantitative data gathered from child care directors, teachers, and parents in Ohio. This data was cleaned as cross-sectional basis and finalized 1475 parents of 91 child care centers as well as 745 parents of 50 partnering centers. All research questions was examined through the use of hierarchical linear modeling. This study revealed that the child care center - Head Start agency partnership has a positive impact on satisfaction with child care and education for single parents, but a negative impact for parents in general. Teachers' benefits and their satisfaction with the center were found to be significant predictors of parent satisfaction, but they were not supported as organizational benefits by the partnerships. Among partnering centers, partnership maturity is a significant predictor of higher parent satisfaction. Thus, the study findings supported that higher parent satisfaction is more likely to depend on how the partnership has been characterized, rather than whether the centers have a partnership itself. This study contributes new empirical knowledge through more direct evaluation of partnership factors and quality programs at the client level. These empirical findings imply that the partnership between a child care center and a Head Start agency needs to further develop strategies to support better designed partnerships that effectively promote quality programs
