The strategic plan is informed by (1) the findings of recent state and national reports on early childhood care and education, (2) administrative and demographic data from federal and state databases, (3) interviews with families of young children, community leaders, and other early childhood stakeholders, and (4) focus groups with child care center directors, educators, and child care providers, as collected to inform Virginia’s PDG B-5 needs assessment process.
