There are many reasons why regulated child care programs open and close. The data available at the time of this report can show the number of regulated programs that opened and closed between June 2012 and March 2017, and demographics of those programs including the Agency of Human Services (AHS) service area/district where they were or are located, and the licensed capacity of those programs. Additional information was available from July 2016 through March 2017 about programs who closed and why a program owner decided to close that program. (author abstract)
