Policy Framework for Early Care and Education (Source: Alliance for Early Childhood Finance)
"The recession economy is taking its toll on ECE programs and policies throughout the United States. As thought leaders and consultants, we have become deeply concerned about how policy makers, and the ECE community as a whole, are responding to budget cuts. Without a very clearly defined and focused agenda we fear that the gains we have made over the past 20 years could be lost. To address this concern, we asked a small group of individuals to help us think more clearly about how to proceed."
