Description:
As part of the Illinois-New York Child Care Research Partnership, this report explores the local child care markets in two areas in each state: in New York, Nassau and Westchester counties, and in Illinois, Cook County and a seven-county region in the southwest part of the state. Our analyses address the following descriptive research questions: 1. How are child care programs with distinct characteristics distributed in each of the four study sites? 2. How does the supply of child care match the heterogeneous needs of subsidy-eligible families? 3. Are there patterns of alignment or misalignment that suggest both needs and opportunities for program development or policy intervention? (author abstract)
