The purpose of this needs assessment is to analyze the current landscape of New Jersey’s B-5 early childhood mixed delivery system to inform strategic planning. The needs assessment also identifies systems changes needed to maximize the availability of high-quality early childhood services for low-income and disadvantaged families across providers and partners, improve the quality of care, streamline administrative infrastructure, and improve state[1]level early childhood care and education (ECCE) funding efficiencies. In defining early childhood, New Jersey includes all aspects of maternal and child health: preconception, interconception, pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting (including fathers). New Jersey’s early childhood system also includes family supports, especially in services and programs such as home visiting, Early Head Start, and Central Intake, New Jersey’s statewide system that provides a single point of entry for families to access a wide array of services from prenatal to age five. For the needs assessment, over 50 state and local needs assessments and other reports were reviewed, and input was sought from key stakeholders including the New Jersey Child Care Advisory Group and the New Jersey Council for Young Children.
