Director's Pick
Resolving the Childcare Paradox
There is a vexing policy conundrum in the childcare and early education field: How do we create an equitable, affordable, high-quality childcare system that serves the needs of working parents, their children, and the childcare workforce? In the United States, where the childcare market is largely private, providers must charge prices that are too high for most working parents, but too low to sustain quality programming for children and good jobs for childcare providers. Public investment is crucial to resolving this paradox, but the allocation of funds – how, to whom, and for what purposes – also requires careful consideration. In this talk, Henly will discuss alternative financing mechanisms – especially demand side vouchers and supply side grants to programs – and share some of her past and ongoing research that examines the benefits and challenges of both approaches for improving childcare access, children’s development, and the wellbeing of the childcare workforce.
