This study reports the prices of child care in Arkansas in 2019. The analysis was conducted by evaluators at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Department of Family and Preventive Medicine, Research and Evaluation Division (DFPM/RED). This study has two main goals. First, it identifies the prices charged for different types of care and age groups across Arkansas to inform the rates reimbursed for child care through the Arkansas Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP). It then examines the extent to which the current subsidy rates meet the federal definition of equal access. Second, this study analyzes specific submarket prices within the urban and rural funding structure used by DCCECE, which classifies two different rate sets based on urban and rural areas designated by USDA Economic Research Service.
