Child Care Market Rate Survey Practices and Policies of States, Territories and Tribes, 2005-2006 The primary objective of this study was to describe current market rate survey methods, practices, and policies in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, five territories, and the 28 tribes that conduct their own market rate survey. A market rate survey is a tool to collect up-to-date information on what facilities, within given geographic areas, charge parents for various types of child care. A second objective was to identify the validity issues that emerge from this comparison of current market rate survey practices. Variables are organized under six specific functions representing the market rate survey process. These were: (1) administration/organization of the market rate survey, (2) facility population and sample, (3) data collection, (4) data analysis, (5) dissemination of the results and (6) rate setting policy. |

Guidance for Validating Child Care Market Rate Surveys An examination of how well market rate surveys assess the price of care in various types of communities, what methods validate market rate survey findings, and the effects of child care subsidies on the larger child care market. Multiple data sources and data collection methods are used to assess validity, market representation, and cost effectiveness of market prices, including surveys of States, territories, and tribes to assess current market rate survey practices and issues, and child care administrative data, census data, and employment data to explore the relationship between child care subsidies and the price of care. The project provides knowledge needed to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of surveys whose findings guide a major investment in America's children and families. |

Oregon Child Care Research Partnership: Wave II A partnership formed to conduct research related to child care policy at both the state and national level, focused on three areas: (1) parent child care choices; (2) community and state needs assessment; and (3) welfare reform. The partnership works collaboratively to improve and enhance the child care data available through the nation's child care resource and referral agencies. Additionally, through small working conferences known as Residency Roundtables, the Oregon Partnership brings together Consortium members and others to move forward policy-relevant research topics identified as high priority by Consortium members and other partners. |
