What?s New in Child Care: Helping Families Access Child Care Subsidy and High Quality School Readiness Services? And Why it Matters

You are invited to participate in a forum designed to provide information on the new child care regulations and to learn how the new rules will improve family access to subsidized child care. The forum should interest parents, service organizations and child care agencies.

The forum will focus on three important issues:

? The changes in the child care subsidy rules and the effect on families.
? How teen parents, kinship caregivers, families on Food Stamps and children of immigrants access child care subsidy.
? How parents find quality child care and why quality matters.
