BENTONVILLE, Ark., Sept. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Heartland Forward's latest report, Child Care Policy Efficiency: What States Can Do to Promote Affordable, Accessible High-Quality Child Care, assesses the landscape of the inefficient U.S. child care market and makes specific recommendations for states to improve child care outcomes. Accessible and affordable child care is crucial to the U.S. labor market as it allows parents – particularly mothers, to participate in the workforce, and it is essential for early childhood cognitive development for children. Unfortunately, the private market has been unable to provide accessible and affordable child care that focuses on quality early childhood education.

Key Points: 
  • With more than three million children slated to lose child care by the end of 2023, the time is now for states, employers and philanthropy to take decisive action on improving child care outcomes

  • Unfortunately, the private market has been unable to provide accessible and affordable child care that focuses on quality early childhood education.
  • Heartland Forward proposes the following solutions:
    For states to improve outcomes, a first step is to consider redirecting child care funding by:
    allowing Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funding for child care; this is associated with better overall child care outcomes
    States cannot achieve an improved status on subsidies alone.
  • Even in the best-funded states, only about one in four children is served by the child care subsidy program, whereas in the least well-funded states, it's about one in 17.
